Now that I'm almost getting the Note, which package should I take - 6 months of 300meg or 12 months of 300meg taking the fact that my internet usage is not high? I rarely used the 150meg given on the iPhone. Does one have to have the internet on permanently on with the Note?

The S3 comes with 75meg for 12 months.

Note + Custom ROM(CM9) > SGS3 with stock ICS esp seeing that you own a iPhone and can always use that for a phone if the size becomes an issue.

Still a tough call. Personally I would opt for HTC One X but its got more to do with my build bias than anything else.

I have a 250MB bundle on my Note. Still got 180MB left this month. I use WiFi at home and clients though. Mobile data only for maps, whatsapp and email really.

Hi Mike, is that per month? A six or 12 month bundle?

Per month dude.
When my contract expires I am changing to prepaid as they have much better data deals there.
Currently I have a Talk120 contract with a R99/250MB bolt on.

Hmmm better than 300meg for 6 or 12 months, what's your airtime rand value?

R200 or something. Not 100% sure and too lazy to dig out an account.
I hardly ever make calls and have accumulated hundreds of minutes that just end up falling away. Would much rather have data.

Makes sense for data yeah, unfortunately MTN's 12 data of 300meg includes 50 sms's and R 350.00 airtime for R 549.00.
