    To search on google is free. Once you go into one of the sites your search pulls up you will get charged. If your going to do a lot of web browsing you would be better off to get the 1gb add non for 9.99 per month (make sure you got the internet add on not the 9.99 mobile broadband add on as this is a weekly add on for a modem)

    If you don't get the data add on mentioned above (which an awful amount of people here do get because it's such good value) then stay off video sites cos they'll eat up them units on ya.

    I'd look at installing Opera Mini too - whatever network you're on.

    So imagine google displays a list of results, I click on one, does this come out of my monthly allowance, or is it a seperate charge
