Vodafone 360 continues its way although it has suffered more criticism than praise, and of course it does with new terminals that reach the platform. The charge of manufacture is again Samsung, and it is precisely the best he had the operating system the phones were red, with technical specifications well above average.

The new terminal and it is calling the original name of Vodafone 360 H2, but is also known within the range of the Korean manufacturer as Samsung i8330.

Comparative rates for official IPAD

Comparative rates for official IPAD

After the disappointing release of "specific charges" for IPAD that rather seems to have been an attempt to reputation of the traditional carriers, we compare the new arrangements come to extend a the huge new category of fees that exist for connections from the phone and from your computer.

As used to happen with Movistar, Vodafone and Orange have launched the rates are quite similar and the three operators have agreed to offer unlimited traffic to any of their options in exchange for reducing the speed to 128Kbps if contract to exceed the limit but never charged anything extra in the country.

To make the comparison more accurate, we will take into account the VAT rates to avoid any confusion with the prices in your letter published Orange press reports that it is a prepaid mode, tax included.

Comparative rates for official IPAD

In addition to these fees, operators will go on sale the new cards necessary MicroSim introduce into the IPAD and in no case will remain associated as of now, we assume that no operator will subsidize.

Ability to share prices in several devices

Movistar has been the only operator that officially will share the same data rate to multiple devices at once and at no extra cost but this option is only available for those who have contracted (or migrate) at a rate of 25 or 39 euros / month.

instead said Vodafone that the rates are independent of the rest IPAD rate although there is always the possibility of a multi-homed (fee of 3 euros per month) to double the data service that can be hired on the computer (Internet rates from 19 euros Contigo / months) and thus share it with the IPAD. For more intensive uses, Vodafone customers can also contract the fee Unlimited Internet Contigo 39 euros / month in a MiFi connection sharing through WiFi.

Orange for its part has made known to prevent multicard ( ECO card) of the IPAD SIM since this service is available to prepaid customers but as equals, may make Vodafone also be activated everywhere contract rates with the MiFi to provide the same benefits in a number of devices time.
