This article will explain what 3 Laptop Broadband and Mobile Internet are and then give you 3 tips you shouldn't live without if you are looking at joining everyone else getting online and mobile.

Mobile broadband is getting land-line quality broadband internet wherever there is a mobile phone signal. All the major networks offer it, and millions use it everyday. As our lives are increasingly online, so too grows the need to have access to it wherever we are.

The technology is very simple; you just plug in a little plastic stick called a Dongle in to your laptop. Once costly, these devices are cheap and/or free - see below for more info.

Laptop Internet is another name for essentially the same thing. The difference is that now the Networks (Vodafone, 3, O2, etc) are getting so competitive, they are all offering free laptops with their Mobile Internet packages. There is are no cash-back vouchers to claim and you get to keep the laptop forever - these are a great deal, but some are better than others.

So, here are the 3 tips I think you really should know:

1. Beware! Every Mobile Internet package has a data allowance - usually between 1 and 15GB per month. If you go over, you get charged but here's the kicker no one knows about. If you use it outside the European Union you get charged 6 per MB so that's 6000 for one GB of data! You can do a GB in a day! If you were to go New York for a long weekend you could come home to a 24,000 phone bill. These prices are with 3, and they are the second cheapest for abroad usage costs...

2. I went with 3 as they were the cheapest and best value. However, don't do what i did and get the 15GB for 15 deal.

Why? Because you can get 15 Gb/m plus a free laptop for just 2.50 per month more! And with 3 laptop broadband it's not a rubbish laptop, it's a brand new 400 in PC World laptop. Anyway don't get a normal mobile internet deal, get one with a free laptop. You might even save money by replacing your land line and home internet deal for mobile internet so you can save money and have the web with you wherever you go, plus a new, faster laptop.

3. 3 came out as the big winners in the Broadband Expert 2008 Mobile Broadband Awards:

In the awards, 3 Mobile Broadband won:

And if you get your mobile deal through 3 as well you also get 25% off your 3 mobile internet package, and you can get free Skype to Skype calls too - see below for links to more info.

So to sum up, if you're thinking of getting mobile broadband then make sure you get a free laptop deal, and get it through 3 because they've won awards for the being the cheapest and best overall provider whilst also offering the best laptop deal.

The laptops on offer change all the time. Right now there are incredible laptop offers. Because of the UK's massive debt I believe the Pound will drop massively in value soon and will buy a lot less laptop for your money, so lock in these deals while you can get them.
