Following on from the launch of other mobile broadband propositions on Prepay, Vodafone has joined the pack too.
The USB modem is a 3.6Mbps model, costing £39. However this inlcudes £15 of credit (good for 1GB data), and doesn’t expire – that’s a nice touch.
Mobile broadband has been one of the success stories this year, with providers falling over themselves to get the devices shipped out there. We’ve seen it go from a premium offering down to almost a commodity in less than 12 months, and with Prepay offerings making things increasingly affordable, you’ve got to wonder if the days of the fixed line, for some people, are now numbered.
Of course, mobile broadband isn’t much use if you want to do some hardcore PC multiplayer gaming (due to the latencies in the network), but for pretty much most other things, it’s great – I use my dongle all the time (so to speak!), and it’s incredibly convenient!

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
