New 48 Deal

I was topping up my brother's phone for him today and I noticed that 48 have a new deal that wasn't there last month. Its €20 per month for calls to all Irish mobile networks, all texts to Irish mobile networks, and 3GB of data.

Wait, is the 48 sim not a 2G sim meaning EDGE Data only ???

Note on Dual Sim phones here > http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showp...&postcount=878 In case you want to run with the Meteor Unlimite LANDLINE deal as well in the one phone.

This isn't a 'deal'. It is just a combination of their usual 'deal' plus their internet charges.

Their 'Deal' is the 10 quid a month for unlimited calls and texts to Irish mobiles.

The internet thing is 2.50 per week, or 15c for 30min snacks. Personally I think this snack thing is way better value than the 2.50 a week.

Get a micro sim and one of these and you'll get 3G so

Maybe not if you make a lot of midweek other network calls?

Did Internet connection sharing show up for you on your iPhone with 48?
