I plan to purchase an iPad 3G in the coming months, when finally have saved enough $$!
I am currently a very happy 2degrees customer with my iPhone (1st gen). I only occasionally use mobile data, and the 2degrees casual data rate is fine for me. (I'm not a big mobile spender!)
My question is, what will be the best option for casual 3G data on iPad? (Wifi at home, work, family's places etc so will only need occasionally, on the road etc)
Ideally I would buy another 2degrees SIM and chop it down, and use data only on a new prepay account. This would seem the best solution for me, but 2degrees does not yet have 3G network.
My current iPhone 2degrees spend is only around $10 per month, including calls, texts, data.
I would not frequently use 250 MB each month as per Vodafone for $20 per month, and I resent having unused data disappear at then end of the month!
I guess I'll go with the Vodafone 250MB monthly on a new prepay account, until the 2degrees 3G network comes online.
Any other ideas? Does Telecom offer prepay (not monthly, not expiring) 3G data?
Thanks,
Joseph.
