Default Vodafone 3g card

Vodafone has had it in Ireland- dual 3g/ GPRS. If 3g is'nt available it switches to GPRS. Speed 3g- 384, Gprs 64 kbps.
Originally cost €199 and €25 for 20mb per month. There was an upgrade recently on special offer- card €59 and €49 per month for unlimited usage.

All prices VAT inclusive @ 21 0/0

Default 3G Card

i'm using 1 now. Handy cause it works anywhere but not that fast. Better than dial up but latency like satellite.

Modem with the card pluged arrived. Vodafone Ireland
They have it , but rather disapointing 1.4 mb ,where in Portugal is 3.6 mb.
My guess is that will be faster in the future.
