Can you recommend any of the vpn sites? i had looked at this type of thing before bur not sure if they are trusted.
Found one called Hideipvpn which 'looked' OK from the website.

Also would these work through an iPad? i want it mainly for desktop use but iPad would be useful.
 
Heads up to all the people on 1 month rolling contracts with 3 for £7.50p/month

Just rang up to change to the £20 for 3Gb for 3 month PAYG plan and they gave me 5Gb for £7.50 on the 1 month rolling contract! Result!

Heard stories of people ringing up to cancel, change and stuff and being offered better deals so i gave it a shot and it worked. Might be worth a try guys......
 
And this is a test of the Dragon dictation application on the iPod. It is available on the actual no class at all. It converts your speech to text which venue to copy and paste or posted on your Facebook or twitter status ages. Or free application it seems to do pretty well. You can do various commands which it will also follow. I am using quite a clue about how the moment and you can pick up my gender in the normal price as well but it's not their best and it will make you a message. I recommend you'd go try out the application to just got out of the upside-Dragon dictation

---------------------------------------

It made a lot of errors that time. Try it out yourself, do a paragraph talking about the app or something and post results here
 
This is a test of the Dragon dictation to see how well it detectors my speaking into text the hindrance it has form on my part is off I can retard

------------------

Not too bad but whenever I started talking my mind would go blank and I'd stumble over my words.

Lingo meo speaka de no..

I thought about this as I use the iPhone dictaphone quite a bit but the combination of mistakes like this and if you're writing fiction with made up words, possibly patterns, then that really screws it up.
Last nail in the coffin is that you speak differently to written communication. Which reminds me I had a great idea today but forgot to record it.
 
With a bit more testing i managed to speak some perfect sentences throwing all sort of commands in. Commas, brackets etc etc

Mum had a go and got it spot on first time; i was like grr :p

I already pay £15 for 10G....what excuse do I give?

Not sure if they are moving with the 10Gb package as its the best on the market. You might be able to squeeze a free MiFi out of them though....

The 5Gb for £7.50 makes sense as its half the data and price of the top package so they not loosing out. It works out the same.

Is the 5G for £7.50 available to downgrade normally? As in open to all?

No. Its not something they offer.
Its not one of their listed iPad packages.

Its something they offered me to keep me on the 1 month rolling contract rather than me wanting to switch to PAYG.

Just ring them up and say you got an offer for 5Gb for £7.50 from your phone provider and that its more suitable because you never exceed 2-4Gb a month anyway. They'll match it!
