What are my options and how much will they cost for unlimited HSDPA (fast 3G) surfing via my phone connect to my laptop?
At the moment the leader is T-Mobile Web n Walk Plus £12.50 Monthly
PS things like 1GB per month fair use policy and no skype etc dont bother me I wouldnt use them anyway
T-mobile, you won't look back. I power my laptop with it. I got web and walk plus, mainly because of the 3gb limit - when using the phone to power a laptop easy to draw a lot of data. I have debranded my phone so have skype and IM now, haven't tried if they work though (the t-mobile branding strips them out).

Oh and your options? You don't have any. I went through all the operators and they are all rubbish. 02 wanted something like £10 for 20mb!!!!!!!

Wrong.
Only Voda and Orange FW have SIP functionality removed.
I was using TruPhone on T-Mo 10.x FW before debranding to 11.x.
:tongue:
I have a �5 per month unlimited (fair usage, so up to 1GB really) *offpeak* data plan with Orange, which is rather cheap considering that the equivalent anytime bundle is Orange World Access Max - �88.13 per month! Offpeak is after 7pm weekdays and all weekend, which suits me because I'm at work during weekdays anyway. Using it as a modem for laptop probably isn't allowed, but I've been doing it few times a week and no one has told me off yet...
Oh, and you get the first two months free as well 😊
Orange will launch an anytime 1GB/month service in June for GBP8.

I have a £7.50 per month unlimited (unfair usage, so completely unlimited really) *anytime* data plan with T-Mo 😊
How can you quibble with that ?
Anyone seen Vodafone's rubbish offering from the 1st of June...
£1 a day for up to 15mb and then £2 per mb after.
And suprise surprise, that doesn't include SIP data which is £2 per mb from the start.

Actually, you ARE limited by fair usage policies - 1GB for Web n Walk, 3GB for Web n Walk Plus, 10GB for Web n Walk Max... It's all in the terms and conditions on T-Mobile's website.
I don't know how much the Plus and Max bundles cost, but no doubt more than £7.50. I wasn't saying that my Orange one is better - it's just better suited to me. I never need to use it during peak hours anyway, so for me £5 is cheaper than £7.50 😊
