We’ve seen a lot of conversation around 3’s MiFi: Simon, Stephen, Ian and Craig are only the tip of the iceberg. We all know everyone loves Apple – there’s too much to point to on here! And now 3 is bringing the two together with a MiFi + iPod touch bundle! This is what MiFi was built for and indeed what a lot of people have said they’re doing with it.

We’re pretty excited about this new deal and can see it being at the top of a lot of Christmas lists.

Here are the details:
– MiFi + iPod Touch
– 5GB of data
– £23 / month
– 24 month contract

Interesting deal as it effectively is like a data only mobile deal with a large data bundle. There are plenty of apps that cover the lack actual phone.

Say for example, I got skype installed with a dedicated number, I then use hullomail to email any missed call info to my google email account = very close to a phone service. “Skype only works on WiFi” I hear you say, well that does not matter as the connection to MiFi is via WiFi so the device would not know that the MiFi actually uses a SIM card to connect to the network.

Orange offer fair usage of around 750mb a month, O2 is unlimited (But following a little Columbo style questioning of their customer support staff I’m saying its 1gb a month). THE 3Uk deal offers 5gb a month which I think is pretty slick.
