    "Unlimited BT Openzone Wi-Fi* *Limited to 10GB a month"

    Really? No proofreading? Or is it because they were in different boxes on the Reg version, making it harder to comprehend?

    Couldn't the Reg have just written "BT Openzone Wi-Fi Limited to 10GB a month" without the silly footnote?

      I would assume el-Reg are just copying the (ridiculous) "unlimited" description from the providers Tarriff sheet....

      I assume they're just taking the piss out of the plan, which is almost certainly worded that way. I commend El Reg for at least getting the facts down there.

    PAYG?

    How about a comparison of PAYG prices?

    From what i could see when i looked, Three was also wiping out the competiton for value (10gb of data for £10 i think it was, whereas all the others were offering 2gb for the same price) but I don't know how good their network signal in my areas.

    For a data only device like an ipad, i'm thinking PAYG might be a better option than being tied to a two year contract.

    Or buy the device outright, go with Giff Gaff, get 3GB a month and save about £130
