Paying 50$ a month for unlimited 3G is just outrageous. Here in Finland you get half a mb a second starting at 5€ a month. The fastest plans go at 15-20€ a month or something like that.
- aleprok 14y agoYeah and pretty much every plan has unlimited bandwidth.
- SyneRyder 14y agoAgreed: here in Australia I get by on $5/ month on prepaid. The 500MB data credit rolls over & I can't use it fast enough - I now have 3.5GB accumulated. It's a good idea to research cellphone plans, you can probably find something very affordable that suits your usage.
- i386 14y agoAustralian here. What provider are you on?
- zanny 14y agoHow does Finland treat wireless spectrum? The problem in the US is that the vast majority is partitioned to the military, old tv and radio bands, and as a result only a few specific ranges are available for.. purchase. And then AT&T and Verizon own all the viable long range wireless spectrum, so they take advantage of the duopoly and just keep jacking up prices with no chance at competition.
