    Yes you could do this. However you'd only be able to use the net, you won't be able to use the sim to send/recieve calls or texts, though you probably know that already :)

    Yeah I know that, I still want to do it though, will it work in any device with a 3G modem or does it have to be Meteor or unlocked do you know?
