I am intrested to know when this will be launched http://www.screendigest.com/online_s...RR-1/view.html
Be intresting if Virgin media and mobile customers can get it cheap as part of complete packages. Could also be the first provider to offer phone,tv,broadband,mobile and mobile broadband. wonder if 5 for £50

Its been released October its £15 a month 3Gb transfer free usb modem as well I think

Is there anything on virginmedia site with information or package offers. If so have you got a link.

Hasn't been fully released I got a internal email with details but cant post it here no bundles have been announced as of yet but its a straight £15 for 3gb bandwidth limit I am thinking its the 1st October, I am at work 2morrow so will find out if I can see a exact date for you

Hi Guys.....

I got a 3 mobile broadband stick as a present and I get the following....

750K Down
250K UP
130 Ping

Is that good??????

I can browse BBCI Player and all sorts of stuff but the connection tends to pause for ages at random intervals which can be quite annoying.

I personally think when mobile broadband really takes off it will do to residential broadband what the mobile did to the land-line.... what do you guys think????

I dont honestly think that mobile Broadband will ever be as good as fixed broadband, down to the very nature of the (wireless) beast, latencies are always going to be high and download speeds always variable.

Just looked and its been released on the 1st October

[Graham M]

So it hasn't been released yet? You mean being or?

The offical release date for the release is the 1st October

Prices are
£15 a month
Allowance - 3Gb
Free usb modem

Your probably right about residential always being superior Graham but like ive said give it 2/3 years and I think the Mobile broadband service will have been dramatically improved especially when HSPA+ & 4G make an appearance... hopefully there will be ping's of below 50 and great download speeds....

My CABLE connection isn't going anywhere soon but I think mobile broadband has the potential to do great things. (especially if you don't want to fork out for a BT-line... obviously that doesn't apply to cable LOL)

I wonder if there will be a package price for existing customers?

Yeah the price I have stated above

I doubt if i will get one if Virgin charging £15 even if you got a package. Vodafone are the fastest at the moment i believe, they have one for £15 or £25 for a faster one.
