Recommend you get a card if using for laptop.. currently i am using 3G to on line.. the handphone do charge while connect with latop using USB but the battery finish faster while on line than the USB charge it...

So the life spend for the phone will be shorter if use it to connect to laptop and suft net.... but if you suft on the phone is fine... it suck less power compare to you connect to your laptop...

If you dun mind change handphone always then get a 3G phone then...speed wist still not bad you can reach around 150-200kbps...

One thing i found out is although that area cover with 3G but may be the phone 3G reception is not that strong yet so you might not able to access 3G while in the G floor room or any place a bit far from windows... Get a 3G phone and try out you will know.. for card i not sure how good is the reception then
