I have been using T-Mobile's WebnWalk package for over nearly two years 
now (having gone through one renewal already). I never normally go above 
100Mb per working day, but find it invaluable, even controlling my home 
computers (1 Fedora 9 box and one Win2003 box) from Leeds.

Normally, T-Mobile is extremely reliable - I did have a problem last 
month in Leeds, which we put down to T-Mobile's enormous popularity over 
the last few months and overloading the local access points, but that 
seems to have been sorted out now.

T-Mobile's customer and technical support is generally very very good, 
so I do not mind paying £17 per month for a notional 3Gb per month cap.
