That's too expensive for my blood.
Even T-zones (wap for T-mobile) is sort of a rip-off. That's why I'm tryign to figure out how to bloody use CSD (it uses your cell's minutes instead of wap), but I'm still unsure as to how it works (if you need (or not) a dial-up account like netzero, or aol). If anybody has the CSD settings for T-mobile USA, could you please help? I'm using a 3650, I have AOL, Netfront & Doris Browsers (series 60), and I DON'T have T-zones.
Thanks.

Here are the prices in my city in Russia.

1mb - 0.50 $ day
1mb - about 0.25 $ after 22.00 or 20.00 don't remember exactly.

Cheap or expensive?

I think that 3.42 USD/MB is too expensive...

[a_qi]

Oh My God!
I'm paying HK$48(US$6.17) for 1mb.
And it's a standard price here in Hong Kong.
How unfair...

I costs £7.50 a meg with tmobile in the uk which is aboust $12 US and tmobile has the cheapest meg price in the uk i think. Most the other networks charge £15 a meg

T-Zones is a rip off? $9.99 for unlimited data is an awesome deal! I dunno if there is a better data plan anywhere! Not fast though - bring on 3G!!

I get unlimited FREE GPRS!!! Im on O2UK. As long as i top up at least £10 a month that is....

In Portugal I pay 10 euros / MB

1 Euro = 1.17 USD.

It's a bloody rip off. I only use it when it's strictly necessary.

Here in Taiwan, with ChungHua Telecom:

$1 USD = 35NT

I pay 300NT ($8.57 USD) per month, for GPRS service.

Then, I pay .008NT per 128mb. That's only $0.22 USD per 128,000mb's of data. ^_^

So, I basically get unlimited GPRS for about $10 USD a month. ^_^ I've never used that much data through GPRS. I mainly use it to keep my IM'ing apps on all the time.

here in the netherland it is $6.00 USD for 2 mb with orange

[kaynine]

in UAE its 0.01 DIRHAM / 1 KB

1US$ = 3.67dirham

about 10 dirhams a meg about 2.7US$ a meg which is expensive compared to other plans ive seen on this forum.

[Lord_Dani]

In Singapore,

SingTel Mobile : 0.5 cents per 1 kb
Mobile One : 1 cents per 1 kb
StarHub Mobile : 0.5 cents per 1 kb

Prices are rounded down, cos i'm not too sure the exact prices. And all 3 service providers allow connection to GPRS on your PDA/Laptop/PC using your phone as a modem.

Like if u have a bluetooth dongle on ur internet connected pc, u just use it as an acess point instead of using the phone´s internet, but still u gotta be in the 10 meters range from ur computer or it doesnt work so it kindda sucks, but still better than paying the 10 bucks per mb that i would have to pay in Mexico
