    IMO, an O2 usb modem is mobile internet, NOT BROADBAND, and shouldn't be compared to broadband. If there's another real broadband option available, go for it.

    O2 is also €40 a month, Metro Lite is €20 isn't it. Wouldn't make sense, even from a financial point of view, to change, especially if Metro is working fine.

    She may experience a whole world of problems with the 3G Internet too as the technology imposes some severe restrictions, not least of which would be contention and coverage.

    I can't comment or Damian.m will accuse me of being a Doberman.

    But read the O2/Vodaphone/3 threads (all same 3G mobile system with variations).
