That's quite informative thank you.
Though in my case I'm quite hampered by the fact only T Mobile (EE) actually get a signal to me that's usable)
I'll give you the fact that I haven't checked the latest data cap rates on 4G recently, I DO know though that when I last did, the data cap was in the region of 1GB/Month, which given that 4G is touted as basically wi-fi speeds out in the street, would be eaten up in a matter of days. The fact that they throw in all sorts of talk time/unlimited SMS etc etc is irrelevant. If all people cared about was basic telecoms we would all be quite happy on 2 or 2.5g phones.
Fact is however, in my case I use a smartphone & I utilise it to its full data capacity, so when the tech comes along (4G) which is all great and whizzy, my comparison of having a ferrari with a meagre fuel ration rings true.
Just checked my android wi-fi usage stats: 20 days - 28 GB (granted outside of the house I wouldn't be needing quite that much capability...)
I'll be very happy when the day comes that:
The country is fully 4G covered (or at least to current 2g/3g rates)
The data cap is removed or set sufficiently high that I can use data in the same way I use my wi-fi currently.
I reckon it'll be another 12 months before I'm happy in those regards.

Actually (and I haven't checked yet) I estimate a 10GB/Month cap would be fine.
Wonder how long it'll be before that translates to a £11/month sim only plan
