laptop dongle help! only have an hour to decide on one!

Hi i wondered if anyone could help. My shopping day was going to be Tuesday but now work has charged my shift and i have to leave at 12pm today to go shopping as its my only chance! :eek:

I am wanting to buy my OH a laptop with a 'dongle' can you point me in the right direction, do I go to a mobile phone shop or order online? he works away a lot and the house he is staying in doesnt have internet connection so would just a dongle be suitable? It is only for 'basic' use as he will mainly just be emailing me and the kids.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, best deals about etc etc thanks so much xx

  • I'd buy a laptop then buy a PAYG dongle rather than get involved with an 18 month contract by going into a mobile phone shop.

    If you are buying a new laptop, get them add a PAYG dongle in for free !!.

    If not go elsewhere and buy the laptop.
