Pretty fast, actually. But I'll be on the lookout for data plan deals if I end up going beyond 100MB a month, which is likely.

Thanks. What carrier did you switch to?

I ended up switching to Wind. It definitely wasn't my first choice but they were running a deal at Christmas – $10/month for 1 GB of data, which was the closest I could find to SO's pricing before they changed. I live in Calgary and Wind's coverage seems to work for me whenever/whereever I need it within the city. I have roaming turned off (or else it would probably get really expensive fast) and I do certainly miss the coverage that SO/Rogers gave me outside of the city. But I figured for the most part, we leave the city just for vacations and most of the places we stay at have free wi-fi so the missing coverage hasn't been too much of an issue so far.

Good luck with your purchase! If you find a better data deal around with more coverage, please let me know.

Virgin would probably be the one I would pick where $5 gets you up to 5Mb, $15 gets you 250 Mb, and $35 gets you 5GB.

Fido is a my second choice where $10 gets you up to 150 Mb, $25 gets you 1 GB, and $35 gets you 5GB.

I am currently with Telus, but that is because I got $250 worth of prepaid cards for half price last year on ebay. I will probably switch to something else when the credit runs out.

(still cut off for me, but only in this topic for some strange reason)

I switched away when SO changed to their current data plans (100 MB/month wasn't enough).

BTW - is it just me or does everyone have the right side of these posts cut off by the ad banner? (I'm using Chrome on a desktop)

It has not done it for me lately. I have no idea what a fix would be. I think my new ad block definitions updated and fixed the problem, I think.

Both will compress web pages, so you can view more pages using Speakout's limited data allotment.

I got a free speakout mini sim a while ago and thought I'd use that in the tablet (I'm thinking of buying exactly the one in your link). I'll use it on wifi mainly, but for email, light browsing at the cottage on speakout LTE (and continue to use my current speakout phone for calls/text, but turn off data).

Just set the APN to internet.com, and you should be good to go.

I'm assuming it should be fine now, but thought I would check before buying it: is anybody using the Nexus 7 on speakout?
