Anyone use one?

Would like one for emails on the go a bit better than a phone with a bit of very mobile day to day computer things for work.

Are they any good as pay as you go?

Any recommendations?

Thanks.

Wifi Tether to phone

Is that reliable?

yes* but will drain the phone battery quicker.

*If it’s on your plan as some specifically exclude teathering

i have a galaxy tab 7 inch 3g witha t mob sim £20 for 6 months unlimited surfing and 500mb data workes pretty well

mav12 is that T Mobile offer still on. On my tablet this very moment in work, that deal would be great for what I need.

I bought one of these

7″ tablet with 3G for £150 – not as good a a Nexus 7 screen and processor wise but ok for most things – giffgaff payg data sim works ok

That is quite affordable for what I need. The Nexus 7 looks good but is about £100 more.

Tethering is all very well, providing there’s wifi to tether to! I use my I pad 3G when away camping and at races/events and there is quite often no wifi in the more rural areas.

Pete, the phone generates a wifi signal, but it can do so from a 3G input signal. Ergo, if your 3G Ipad would work, then tethering would also.

Neither a 3G tablet, or wifi tethering to a 3G phone, will route to the Internet if there is no 3G network
