Telstra has a internet dongle thingy - a square shaped one and can sit up on a bench for example.   and 5 devices can run of it at one time   costs about  $80 and is prepaid     I think you can just charge it and you do not have to have it connected to your device eg ipad

I assume you mean a wifi hotspot?

they are much easier to take to hospital I have taken my lappy 3 times but its so cumbersome next time would take a tablet and most hospitals have wifi so you shouldnt have any problem using the net

yes cuddles we doing great on jan 16th will be 1 yr post transplant:-x

here it is

Telstra Elite Mobile Wi-Fi (MF60)

$79 and comes with a $40 bonus recharge

Item number: 251199654818 is what i was lookin at

thats so good to hear hun :-x

UHM Tan:-p

I would not buy a tablet of the internet - no idea of the quality and no help if it breaks down.

TVSN has Toshiba tablets - abit more expensive but a good name and better after purchase service

what about a ipad - I LOVE mine and use a Telstra prepaid card - costs $30 and easily topped up via a voucher or over the internet.

I got the shop to put the card in and set it all up for me

Big W have the older version quite cheap now  or I would get the new version with the lightning charger rather than the old 30 pin charger

Although it is advertised as 3G it clearly is not.

They have sold out and you won't get it in time for the 16th.

I have noticed a lot of sellers passing off wifi as 3G. They're not 3/4G unless they take a sim card. That is a wifi device and you will need to tether to phone or buy a wifi hotspot device.

If you are with Telstra you might get a good deal packaged with phones for a 3/4G. It might be handy on the farm eventually, or travelling.

That unit says it has GPS but you need an antenna to use GPS or you need to tether it to 3/4G phone to use GPS while travelling.

The listing is not as honest as I'd like it to be if I was going to buy from them. I think they make it sound better than it is.

can i just say i wasnt gonna buy from ebay i was just looking at them so i had an idea
