Default Finally, Unlimited Internet via 3G Phone!

Cambodia one of the world poorest nations is now equipped with 3G phone network featuring unlimited internet access at a flat $40/month. Finally I can go online, come here 24h a day, no matter where I am in Cambodia.

Internet access that i'm using costs me roughly $200/month, and even worse only a few hours a day. So i'm going to dump this little monster very soon.

Well, so in free time I'm going to hack my car, install a mini-pc with this 3G internet access. Yeah it's going to be the first internet-connected car in Cambodia! Damn!

What do you think?

Wow I feel way too priviledged. I am getting a 6Mbit connection here plus a phone line for $50/month...

anyways is the hack worth the money/time? I guess you could but I dont see the point too much unless u spend hours at a time in ur car. I just use my phone if i wanna check something online or price quotes etc

An internet connected car, sounds like a good idea if you have to stand in street traffic for hours each day, like in big cities, or If you have to travel all over the country.

I'm going to use unlimited internet mainly for running metatrader server. My server in US is 500 milliseconds a way from here, so 3Ghz server is like 100Mhz, as there's a second pause every mouse click. Pretty terrible feeling when it lags this long. I wonder how those NASA guys cope with remote controling the rovers on Mars, since there's always minutes of pause between clicks.

Yah the internet-connected car idea seems useless. I wanted to use that to created a hotspot for my laptop, but I could just connet the laptop to the phone.
