Anyone have one for sale or know where the best place to get one is?

Not after a dongle as my net book takes a SIM

I have heard that the dongles take a sim too though, true?

just buy a 3 PAYG sim card, they come with free data i think

Yes, dongles have a SIM in them.

I use Virgin PAYG. I pay 30p for any day that I use data. Flat rate, : 30p for one byte or 30p for 1Gb. If you don't use it you don't pay.

Give that a try

The secret is to not get a '3' specific 'broadband' sim. You pick up one of the normal 3 mobile phone sims and add the data add-on instead as it works out cheaper

'3' shops give out PAYG sims for free, if you hav'nt got a local store I've got quite a few here and can get one in the post to you sir

Their PAYG top up deal offers great value for money and I swap my sim between my htc smartphone and a 3 dongle/netbook to get broadband access on the move. If your netbook has a sim slot it will work no worries no dongle required.

Works out at £5 per month for 'fair use' broadband access (plus free texts/minutes etc)

Give me a u2u if you need a sim/more info

Cheers

Yes the dongles have SIMs no difference from a standard 3 PAYG SIMs just put credit on the SIM and convert to a data addon on line.
