Using UK 3 SIM for data in Hong Kong

I am going to be spending some time in the UK this summer and bought a 3 SIM to use in my 3G USB Modem.

It turns out I'm going to be in Hong Kong next week and the "3 Like Home" promo will still be in effect so in theory I could use the "Broadband Lite 1GB" add on while there. But I am unsure of where to start and how to make this work. Any words of wisdom from the collective?

Just an update -- probably not all that useful since "3 Like Home" is going away, but I had no problems at all. I went only line and converted my top up to the "Broadband Lite" addon and used "three.co.uk" as my APN and I was off. Had a little bit of flakiness from time to time but if I disconnected and reconnected it usually went away.
