3G PAYG for data

Adam

I'm looking for a PAYG sim in order to use with 3G data (in a laptop).

I don't want a contact as it'll only be occasional use. Obviously the
cheaper the data charges the better. I don't care about voice or SMS
charges.

Can anyone recommend anyone?

Thanks.

How much data on the days you do use it?

Orange do a unlimited days browsing bundle which you buy for £1 on the
days you need it. If you have a 3G SIM (available from O shops - just
ask for it), there is a cap on the browsing at 25MB (although I don't
know how strict the cap is..).

The T&Cs say:

"The Offer is an Orange World Access Daily Extra ('the Extra') which is
available to new and existing Pay-as-you-Go Orange customers with 3G
phones between 1st June 2006 and 31st August 2006"

and also

"To ensure the fair allocation of network resources for all customers
the Extra is subject at all times to a fair usage level of 25Mb per day
and is not to be used for other activities such as modem access for
computers,"

Steve.
