Went into Shell / Coles Express to get a $29.00 Vodafone voucher for my phone, found that for another $1 I got a Mobile broadband Starter kit with Sim and 200MB Start up credit, yes they are locked to Vodafone, but at this price a Bargain.

Yep, I got one yesterday from Coles, and confirmed that after activation I got 4G, for $19 inlcude modem and 4G, u cant complain, although my area is not perfect, but so far I d/l almost 600M last nite w/o any dropout.
But s/he was buying mobile phone recharge, not brodaband, so the OP got a bonus for $1.
Looks like a K3571 which is U2100/900MHz but it could also be a K3771 which is U2100/U850MHz, I left it at work so I cant check.
Is this somehow unlockable? Is it 850MHz compatible?
