Telecom XT vs Vodafone Competition Starting Already
Author: PeteI saw a google advertisement this morning on one of my favorite technology blogs for 100mb monthly data allowance on prepay for $10 from Vodafone. This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for.
For those of you with data capable phones, you’ll be aware that Vodafone put in a great offer on prepay for 10mb for $1 on a daily basis.
However what annoyed me was that most days I don’t need 10mb, I might just want to check my emails (maybe 0.5mb) and sync my outlook calendar (0.5mb) but I still have to pay the $1. Over a month that adds up to $30 which is not reasonable for the amount I would be using it (based on that I would be using just 10% of my allowance).
So, you can understand why I am stoked to find Vodafone giving me 100mb (instead of 300mb) for $10 instead of $30. Hopefully this is just the start.
