Cheapest Data / GPRS Tariff

SingingDwarf

I have an unlocked Windows Mobile handset, which I would like to use mainly for data - e.g. emails, web access, etc. I very rarely make or receive calls, mainly using SMS instead.

Can anybody recommend the cheapest tariff for (mainly) mobile data?

I have looked at the PAYG tariffs:-

Orange PAYG

Max £1/day (10p/SMS 35p/min)

T-Mobile PAYG Everyone

Web'n'Walk, max £1/day (10p/SMS, 15p/min)

Three PAYG Flat12

30x days, 2GB @ £5 (12p/SMS, 12p/min)

Virgin PAYG

0.5p/kb (10p/SMS, 15p/min)

Three Flat12 probably looks like the best option, but are there any better contract deals? Can these 'mobile internet' deals with the USB modem be used in a handset - i.e. is the SIM removable and can it be voice/SMS enabled?

O2 also offer o2 web for £7.50/month out of your credit. (200mb limit i think but plenty for most mobile use)
Also makes you eligible for the £10/month topup for 300 free text, and £2.50 credit left over.

Most low cost tariffs dont allow use as a usb modem/with a laptop.

orange payg also do a 7days for fiver , thats what i use

on my p990 using a 3g sim i get about 1/3 meg connection so it's ideal for when i'm not home

I've not found a better payg data deal than that

also if i top up by 30 squid i get unlimited text & 600 same network minutes
