4-hr 'surfing time' not sure if that's good or bad. To me it's like a phone which only has 4-hours battery life.

This seems quite short I have a Osprey from EE and it typically lasts 10ish hrs

Hot! Ordered, thanks! We've got a very old Three dongle that needs replacing (started to not hold its charge and randomly loses signal) but Three quoted us approx £40 for a replacement unit! At £9.99 you can't go wrong, this is great news. :laughing:

You can't get anything for £9.99 - title should be updated as xdaminis pointed out to min £24.99

The dongle is £9.99 - my reservation states: "Total to pay at store £9.99". Can I not just use my existing Three SIM?

But they will make you sign up to a 30 day contract, tried this before.

OP .. you don't state anywhere how many Mega Bytes, and/or how many Giga Bytes you get for your Monthly Tariff?.

Would there be any benefits to this compared to using my phone that allows me to create a hotspot - effectively sharing my 4g signal to other devices?

Your phone's battery would die in around 2hrs, these should really last a number of hrs more

OK, thanks for the heads-up, I'll see what they say tomorrow when I collect it.

It's a Huawei E5573 - put that into ebay and see what they sell for. No way you will get one for £9.99, sorry. xdaminis right regarding contract.

Seems to be quite a bit of info missing here? So we've now discovered it's £9.99 + £15.00, right?
But what's the inclusive data?

As confirmed by everyone above, I've been told I can't buy this without at least paying an extra £15 for a 1 month contract. However it still works out cheaper then what we've been quoted previously by Three for a replacement dongle (£30-£40 I think).

Ok so I purchased this device and immediately cancelled the contract. Can I now just purchase another Data sim from any provider insert and it will work?

In store only, so like the £0.97 SIMs a goose chase plus depression at having visited a PC World.
