766229 2009-04-19 05:18:00 Thinking of getting it for trips away in the camper.
The plan that looked ok (it was the cheapest) was 100mb a month.
How much a day would 2 hrs of surfing use up and kids playing games like starcraft and runescape.
Does skype work on this.

766230 2009-04-19 05:34:00 Not sure how much Skype uses but I would say you wouldn't get much more than a week. Keep the kids off and you would have a better chance surviving the month. mikebartnz (21)
766231 2009-04-19 05:35:00 According to Vodafone it doesn't work with VOIP. stormdragon (6013)
766232 2009-04-19 05:40:00 How long will the kigs be playing StarCraft and runscape?

For 2 hours of web use I reckon easiest way to find out is download something liek this and see how much you use:

It will keep the kids happy when away with the camper (I hope) I have put in a ps2 but they still yearn for their games when away.
I f they are happy I can sit outside in my deckchair drinking huge iced glasses of rum and coke and not feel guilty.

Depending on the rum you use you should feel guilty for putting coke with it.

766235 2009-04-19 09:07:00 It wont work with VoIP, but you may be surprised if you use iLBC or something such as Skype. They'd *chew* through it quick though (<2 hours will go through 100MB).
However, normal surfing, provided you're not playing Runescape, no movies from YouTube, you might be alright :)

You'd be amazed how quick you fly through it though :-/

766236 2009-04-19 11:29:00 Personal experience from playing things like starcraft(warcraft, diablo) and playing runescape, I'd say 100mb is defiantly not enough. Try get round 2gb. Thats if you only do emailing, Skype, the kids playing games, etc

your be sorted then with 2gb.
