Hello
Here in australia, i pay 2 cents per kilobyte (or 1cent Euro/US), thats around $20AU, or $10 euro/US$ for 1024k (1megabyte)
How does that compare to europe/USA?

Hi there! I am paying RM 0.05 for 10kb. USD 1 is RM 3.8 only. So you guys do the math. This is from the wireless carrier DiGi. On another carrier called Maxis. It costs RM 0.04 for 1kb.

sheeeh - we get it pretty bad off.....
and the thing is - i think we've had GPRS for about 2 years now - its nothing new.
and its not a lack of competition - we do have 3 networks offering the service.
apparently in some countries - you pay a different amount for web browsing (on a pda/laptop), than you do accessing wap sites. That would be carrier specific wouldn't it be? (i'll be using GPRS on my sony CLIE n710c PDA via BT) |

10MB for 6€ , but 5€ for each more MB
OR (you can pay the two options) :
6€ for unlimited wap access (but you can do only wap, no irc, icq, mail...) |

I live in Holland and have the operator named BEN who gives 1024 Kbytes away with 1¤ (it still has also a monthly cost 15¤ for this packet )
So i think Holland is in the middle or something... |
