Thank you for doing the same with Optimus!

I only point out again that TMN also gives traffic (even unlimited, depending what option you buy) on their wifi hotspots. Of course this can be of no use and depends on what you intend to do and where you are moving about (and reading your interesting website, it seems you are definitely not going to be interested in such an option! ) .

But if you are staying at a hotel covered by a ptwifi hotspot you can connect to it at lower rates (i.e. included in the cost of the mobile Internet through the cell phone) and save data traffic through mobile network for when you are out in the city or in the wild.

I had no "pushing" in buying also a USB dongle with TMN, only the people at the shop, as usual, do not know that you can well connect through a cell phone and only advised me about the (non-existent) risks of doing so. So, no real pushing for me, only a bit of not well digested know-how!
The same happened for me (but a bit harder) right at the Optimus shop!
So, it really matters about who you get in contact with.

Cheers and good 2010! : D: bye:
