We picked up one of those not long before Xmas as one of the big telcos was running a tempting promotion with a prepay service. I think we've been given more in compensation than we've spent using it. Their brand new network has experienced several major egg-on-the-face outages. But now when we travel I can connect without hunting for free wifi signals or paying extortionate rates to use private or hotel networks. We really are privileged in this city to have free wireless in the public libraries.
