This brought to mind that I hadn't done much about comparing mobile broadband packages here, including costs for going over one's allowance, roaming charges, etc.
While I have it in mind to tackle this subject sometime, when I can get around to it, I have found a link which gives helpful comparisons at the bottom of its page.
