Virgin Mobile's "Totally Unlimited" turns off the meter for $79.99 a month

Jun 25th 2008 5:38AM (Engadget Mobile)
Then again, the Swedish market has always been a hard one to figure and competition has been fierce with a lot of weird deals.
For example, I’m currently using a prepaid service from my carrier. As I want to buy a new phone I just signed up for a 12 months contract, €10 á month and I can use the entire fee to make calls, send messages and send/receive data on their network. That’s a total €120 which I can use, no hidden fees. Sure, it’s not the cheapest minute price around but the funny part is this.
When signing up for this my provider will pay €120 on any new (unlocked) handset available on the Swedish market.

Considering salary generally is higher in Sweden, who wins the argument?
It’s not like a weak dollar due to crappy economy is a strong argument.
Sure our government are tax hogs, and every €50 includes €10 in government taxes. Still… I wouldn’t consider your new and ”awesome” plan (I love you britts for not using that word excessively) the dogs bollocks.

I'm resided in Sweden where these kinds of plans have been available for years and years. All major providers have €50 or €60 flatrate plans. Heck, some of them will even throw in a decent handset or let you choose from any available phone on the market (unlocked) with a €50-100 discount if you sign up for 12 months or more.

Example: €50 flatrate plan for 18 months will grant you a €100 discount on an unlocked N95 8GB.

After that you can call, message and surf with 7,2mbit hdspa till your head drops.

So... this kind of plan is considered news material over in the states?

The best scene in the movie is undoubtedly the slowmotion scene during the first fight. The way Leonidas moves make him seem heavy like a concrete column with the trust of a jackhammer. The way he pierces and deflects Persians with his shield just give me the bumps.

Rumored price and download size for Shivering Isles

Yes, Yes, Yes. I would buy it even if it costed as much as a full price game. This expansion will give much more gameplay time than most full games.
