Question Vodafone 3g Datacard

I'd appreciate your feedback on these cards - if you've used it what's the coverage really like? What are the actual real world download speeds running on 3G (and what's it like when it drops down to GPRS - I hear the handover isn't too clever - but what are your experiences?)

If we use these devices it's likely we'll be running Citrix client over the link - or if this real time use is impractical then it'll be plain old Notes replication. Whaddya reckon?

Any info much appreciated - cheers peeps!

My boss got one of these last week, so I might be able to get my hands on it next week for a test doing real work , I'll be using terminal services over it as well. I'll let you know on tue/wed .

Check the Vodafone website, their coverage chart is shocking. Ok it's new technology etc so not going to be widespread but only looked like about 4 decent areas!

Have one arriving next week at work to test, should go nicely with our own leased gprs line
