that's also a rediculous amount of data to download using a mobile phone. about a quarter of that would be way more than sufficient for most users.

I didn't go to any others because I would have forgotten what the first couple told me (smile.) Regarding T-Mobile, they could offer me a USB modem to plug into my laptop which, the chap in the shop assured me, would be better than a card. For £29.99 a month for 12 months minimum, I could download 3GB a day under the fair usage policy, which includes surfing and Email etc. He said the speed would be about 3.6. Vodafone offered a 2GB per day plan for a minimum of 18 months for the same price, using either USB or a card. Frankly I can't find anything on a pay-as-you-go basis, so I wouldn't bother. I don't want to be tied into any contract for the duration I'm looking at. Thanks to all those who helped me with this one. I'll just have to be nice to the nurses and see if they'll let me use my mobile (smile.)
