In antwerp I've got 3g speeds of 250KiB (bytes, not bits) / sec. That's
not a lot, but enough for some users to use the internet simultaniously.
The internet at my school is capped to 60KiB, so a lot better.
I'll send them a mail, it can always be usefull to google something at
the boot if there are any questions we don't know the answer to.

3G is a "best effort"... only there when available.... I have one in
Ostend... but not in Iseghem...
also speed is "locked" to 512kbit by Base.... Mobile Vikings can't
give you more speed...
Don't expect to download an 1 gigabyte ISO within 8 hours with that
speed...
You could check 1 gmail session in "basic html" ... or in special
"mobile version" found on smartphones...
Basicly the 3G offered by Proximus & Mobistar is still better in
"availability" AND "speed"...
but not necessarlly in price (they still think 50mbyte is enough?)
Other solution:
Belgacom Internet users get a free sim card to have "3G Weekend"
offering... it's only limited in time (weekend) and size
(512mbyte).... but you get a lot of speed...

no idea when you pass the 512mbyte marker...
