The SE K850i is HSDPA enabled - O2 selling at the moment under 300 on postpay. You can buy a data bundle from O2 and then use your phone as a broadband modem (via cable or bluetooth) with your laptop.

Yeah I agree, I use the Sony Ericsson K850i for surfing the web and taking photos and its the way to go.
30e for 10GB a month on O2 billpay, is the extra cost for using your phone as a broadband mobile and if your just using your phone to read email or surf the web it all comes out of your 10GB allowance.

so 2 use broadband on ur phone u need to have ur laptop with u, do meteor offer any broadband offers, if u do not use broadband can u visit sites on ur fon and if so is it really slow and does it cost much

Its a lot easier to surf a webpage on your laptop/Pc than on the phone, but I do both.
So to answer your question, no you dont need to have your phone with you when your accessing the O2 broadband.
