    fibre would be a much better option. Especially if you're a heavy user and you can get access to fibre.

    Whilst Three's one plan is amazing i'd say it's not a replacement for home broadband (unless you have crappy low speed adsl) as it's running off a mobile network and not a fixed line connection. So speeds and connectivity could vary throughout the day making your experience worse.

    So i'd say get fibre if you can.

    The "no charge for 4G" statement could mean that Three cap speeds at say 25Mbps for all tariffs.

    If ZhugeEX works for Three (Surely, to know the timings of the web appearance and phone availability of the deal they must do)...

    Then surely this is pimping your employer on MSE and in contravention of the rules? ;)

    I don't work for Three.

    I know people who work for Three. (and T-Mobile but that's irrelevant)

    Want proof.

    weren't they advertising 3.9G?

    A bit puzzeled by that, I thought they may be shooting themselves in tyhe foot unless there is a legal naming issue and you have to meet certain speed limits to be classed as 4G.

    OTOH I guess it's good because lat thing you want is the firefox/chrome numbering wars where chrome came out and started going up in big version numbers for the sligtest update. We'll have firefox 99, chome 102 but 2014.

    Three don't have a 4G network yet. They are just marketing 3.9G (DC-HSPA+)

    But once 4G is launched everyone will have access to the network free of charge. Just need a 4G phone ofc.
