i'm probably going to be a good girl and wait till my birthday in June. Hopefully we will have a good idea of 3G and prices for data plans etc.

anyone know what the data plans for US 3G ones are like?

Brit,

Here's an MacWorld article that talks about that very thing!

Tom (... unlimited is good! But not cheap!)

how heavy a usage would 250mb be? see i have a contract for £30 at the moment with my iphone that is coming to the end over the summer- i can then get unlimited with pay as you go for £15 with my supplier, if i could get plan at £15 per month for data- i'm sorted!

fingers crossed!

Ohh.. simplicity isn't pay & go, it's a rolling contract.

yeah, they shouldn't try and confuse us oldies!! anyway what will 250mb get me a month? how many hours a day on forum type places do you reckon?

[josh.p.]

I honestly don't know! I'd say a few hours a day.

A girlfriend of mine is a photographer here in the Westport area...I just noticed this new advert on her website:

"We are now offering our wedding photography clients a special iPad, complete with a wedding album from your day, ibooks about successful marriage and other special bonuses. Our technology consultant is always on the cutting edge! Please inquire about this exciting new product!"

How cool is that?
