that was a mouthful.

excuse my ignorance or if this has been asked.

Telecom offer mobile broadband on prepay on thier new network.
Does this mean i can go buy a telecom usb stick outright ($199) and a telecom prepaid sim and proceed to use this at a $1 per day for 10mb.
Do i put the sim in my phone first and activate it?
and if i wish to move onto 120mb for $12 do i call *123 and let them know?

any help would be apreciated.

Yes card for $199, $19.95 for a SIM plus any credit.

I don't think you can sign up to the 120MB or 10MB/day plan from start-up, i.e. only 500MB+. Of course there is nothing to stop you changing that afterwards....

That would work, althrough you would call the prepaid help desk.

You can try asking the store, they might just do it for you?
