To summarise it:

Voda: Free browsing their portal and $1 for five minutes on other sites.

Telstra: 55c per 25kb block or part there of and their own site has these charges as well.

All prices Are AUD

Which do you think is cheeper, 25kb isnt much is it so i think voda is better, but im not suure.

They are both well expensive. 25kb would be taken up by a handful of small photos so Voda is the cheapest out of the two.

Still very expensive, compared to our place... We get fullfledged mobile internet for four and a half dollars a month... Lucky we...

Speed, i am unsure about, how do u suggest i find out ???

I forgot to mention this is for my Pre-Paid mobile (thats why its exspensive)

And i founnd a beter deal with dodo pre-paid

50c for five minutes and all there rates are cheeper so i think i will use prepaid with them.

*edit* this offer is expired and now its $1 for five mins like voda, but like i said before dodo rates are on the whole cheeper.

oh so it's the same in UK, missuk?
Here in Ireland - get this - voda readytogo/prepay give you 1mb for euro2.00 (no initial connection charge i.e. minimum charge etc...) - o2 ireland take euro 10.00 (!!!) for a mb prepay and - last time I checked - 20 or 25 cent initial connexion charge!!! 2.00 : 10.00 !!! and then they boast how you can download napster tracks at a flat rate rather than per kb... as if anyone would pay 30-40 euro for 1 song???

O2 UK give everyone 1MB Free standard, but for a extra megabyte they charge £3.00 not that good tbh..

ive heard there bringing out some better tariffs hich im hoping means more free MB included in your contract!

1 MB is measly, it won't suffice anyways...
