GPRS PCMCIA laptop cards - anyone use one?
Have the option through work to get one of these for £3 a month and download costs of £3/mb charged per kb downloaded.
How much would for example a page of scoobynet (without any pics) download in kbs?

t-mobile is doing the datacard for £50 and a monthly subscription of £13.50. that including 100mb/month which is more usage.

Cheers 
Just phoned up the corporate account dept and the card is free and I don't need to take another sim from them apparentyl, I can just use one of the 2 sims I already have
A free datacard then for emergencies - perfect Just got to make sure I don't start using it for browsing Scoobynet or its gonna cost me a fortune

LOL Puff I don't think they are going to let me have more than one card for free. I didn't realise they would let me have it for free otherwise I would have got it when I got the 2 phones from them 
I have seen them on ebay for £65 for sim free unlocked cards though.

Puff I just checked and the silly bint at Orange had got it wrong and they do have to be taken out with a new sim card on a 12 month contract. Its only £3 a month for me but thinking I will get the CF GPRS card and a PCMCIA adapter so that I can use my pda or laptop on the move.
They then also told me they are just putting on promotion for my company the new SPVM1000 which I could have for £200 which are normally around the £400+ mark

No worries. I am gonna try and sell the Axim and all its bit I have for it but doesn't look like anyone is gonna be interested on here, no replies yet.
If I can sell it I am gonna get the SPV as it does all I want in one unit and can get a blue tooth gps receiver so can still use Tom Tom. Would be perfect.
If I can't sell it I might just go the cheap option and get a blue tooth compact flash card and connect the Axim via that to the mobile phone or even cheaper do it via the existing infra red connections on both.
