Comments on T-Mobile Web 'n' Walk Card

As a big fan of existing 3G data cards I was never in any doubt that HSDPA would be impressive, and I wasn’t disappointed. Using the Web “n” Walk card on T-Mobile’s HSDPA network really is like using your ADSL connection at home or in the office – it really is THAT fast. But even the best technology can fall flat on its face if the pricing is wrong, so it’s good to see that T-Mobile hasn’t just met my expectations in this area, but actually surpassed them by a wide margin. At £20 per month for pretty much unlimited data, a free card AND 12 months free hotspot access, the Web “n” Walk card looks like it could be the bargain of the year! Update: Since publishing this review I have discovered that T-Mobile does not allow either VoIP or Instand Messaging activity on its Web "n" Walk tariff. While I can accept T-Mobile not wanting masses of VoIP data to flood cells, I see no reason to stop IM usage. T-Mobile says that it will have future tariffs that will allow IM usage, but for now I have been forced to adjust the scores and award for the Web "n" Walk card. Note: Unfortunately the Web "n" Walk card doesn't currenly work on Mac OS, but will aparently work on the Windows partition if you're using BootCamp. Note 2: An eagle eyed reader has informed me that the Web "n" Walk card will work with a Mac running Mac OS if you use the launch2net software from Nova Media. It costs about 80 Euros but does allow Mac users to enjoy HSDPA goodness, although the Wi-Fi part of the card still doesn't work. Thanks for the info Glenn.
