    2 Degrees network charges?

    snip

    A nationwide plan with 50 megabytes of data over 30 days will cost $6 per pre-paid pack.
    Access to the main city broadband zones will cost $20 for 512MB of data over 30 days, $50 for 2GB over 60 days or $150 for 10GB over 90 days.


    This expensive???

    Honestly Im not sure , but I have a feeling I can bang out 150 G in a lot less than 90 days

    is there a way I can check my history ( remember m not in NZ )

    Cheap as chips compared to the other ones.

    I'm going to finish with the phone line at home, get a small 2 degrees plan for banking and at home, and do most of my internet stuff at Starbucks, McDonalds, the service station....shit I reckon in time it will be free everywhere....

    For mobile broadband that is a good deal. It's still more expensive than most fixed line offerings, assuming you get through a reasonable chunk of data.

    Your probably best to only consider mobile broadband offerings if you need portable Internet access.

    Probably not best to openly advertise in a public forum that your commiting copyright infringements ...

    Mobile broadband is really only useful for checking emails, looking at facebook etc. The minute you start to actually use the internet properly the charges become outragous.

    The mobile plans in the first post do seem like good value (compared to what else is on offer at the moment) if all you are doing is light browsing on your phone (google maps, facebook, email etc).
