Smartphones are cleverer than ever
They’re light, versatile and convenient – but watch your monthly data cap! Are they the right option for you?
These mobile phones connect to the Internet anywhere (the same as the 3G dongle) so you can get email, Facebook or browse the Internet using a private Internet connection via mobile phone towers.
However, data plan restrictions and the costs you’ll incur if you go over your data cap means they’re best used sparingly.
