As above. Does anyone have it. If yes, who do you use and how do you rate it?

It's something I'm looking into at the moment. It wouldn't be used often, hence the PAYG, but I'm still after a decent provider. Reading some reviews Vodafone seem to be ok.

I've used Three's mobile broadband for about 2 years now. Works very well where I am, no complaints and is actually more consistent than our old fixed broadband service from Virgin.

PAYG can be relatively expensive though. I'm on a rolling monthly contract which doesn't work out too bad. If your phone picks up 3G well, then broadband should be just as good.

God, I can't imagine having to pay £15 a GB for full Bluray rips Still, I guess if you are only a light user then it works out cheaper than a phone line...

3G doesn't have the throughput to download GB's at a time anyway... the data connections aren't reliable enough thus dropped packets etc.,
