For example, for me in Hong Kong here are the figures:
1. Hong Kong
2. ThreeHK 3G Rechargeable SIM Card
http://www.three.com.hk/website/appmanager/three/home?_nfpb=true&_pageLabel=...
3. US$26 for the card (US$0 for the card, US$26 pre-paid balance)
4. US$2.5/month for 50MB data and unlimited SMS within threehk network
5. US$0.05/MB for the first 50MB, then US$0.25/MB onwards
6. Probably not long-term viable, but there will be alternatives
7. Best deal in the world, I think

I've been told by many people, that one of the biggest problems with OVMS is the cellular providers. It is a hassle to maintain a pre-paid card, and the providers keep changing the rules. Particularly in the USA.
Could you let me know (with figures in US$, approximately ok, please):
1. What country are you in?
2. What cellular provider and service do you use?
3. How much do you pay, up-front for the SIM card?
4. How much do you pay, monthly for the service (SMS + Data)?
5. How much do you pay, per-MB for data?
6. Long-term viability - do you think this is still going to be possible in a year or two?
7. Anything else relevant?
Just reply to this email, on the mailing list. I only need 1 report for each provider, so if you see someone else reply to the list for your provider you can ignore this.
Thanks, Mark.
