I presume some people on this list travel to the UK and Europe. We will be travelling in Europe on a guided tour where the use of free internet in coffee lounges is not an option and my experience of a couple of years ago was that buying Internet time in the hotels where we stayed was horrendously expensive - made worse by the exchange rate.
Are USB 3G modems a reasonable alternative? If so, what would members recommend? I went to a Telstra shop the other day and the response was one of "Oh no, you wouldn't use your Telstra USB overseas - it would be too expensive!" Then the sales person became disinterested. We will largely stay in the UK with my son who has wireless Internet so the UK is less of an issue although we will be touring with them for a couple of weeks. Any pointers would be appreciated.
