Driving with the dongle

Written by sam, 30 April, 2008Mobile Broadband

Over at Overclockers UK forum, easyrider is considering getting in on some dongle action for use on his in-car laptop but, before he decides to take the plunge, is seeking the answer to two short and sweet questions: “will it work on the move?” and “what’s the cheapest?”.

Well, Azraeluk and squawkBOX offer their opinions, with both suggesting 3’s web-giving wonder-stick as the dongle of choice for his needs. In fact, squawkBOX helpfully writes, “3 offer their broadband service on a PAYG basis which might be better for car use. All you need to do is buy a dongle here: http://threestore.three.co.uk/payg/?modem=1 (which is powered through USB) Then you pay £10 for 1GB, £15 for 3GB or £25 for 7GB of access (this lasts 30 days).”

Easyrider seems to be tempted; although the he’s concerned that the PAYG dongles themselves are a little pricey, he thinks £10 for 30 days of use is a fair deal. Head on over to read the full thread and offer any relevant experience you may have.
