Samba Mobile Launches Free Mobile Broadband Service in U.K.

Samba Mobile is going to test the notion that an ad-supported mobile broadband service can work. Apple iPad users buy a Samba SIM now for £2.99 plus some "packaging" costs and get free mobile broadband service. Other notebook or desktop PCs will require a Samba dongle. 


Samba Mobile will become the latest service provider to try and prove that an ad-supported mobile service can work, though all prior attempts have failed. 


Tablet owners need only the Samba Micro-SIM, though the service is only available on Apple iPads at this stage. Laptop and desktop users must purchase a Samba USB-Dongle and the SIM for £25. 
Samba surfing is compatible with Firefox and Google Chrome but members are forbidden from accessing pornography sites as well as material that breaches copyright or is deemed offensive. 
The company also says it may install cookies to collect information about your “general internet usage”.
