micro sim prepaid in hong kong

has anybody been back recently? I'll be heading to hk in december for the first time and want to pick up a prepaid sim for iphone 4. Are they as common now as the regular sim or should I just get a regular one and have someone clip it?

regardless, where's a good place to get one under 200 HKD with plenty data

I haven't seen it specifically listed, but what you could do is get a regular one and have it cut at a store in Sin Tat

Best deals on prepaid 3G data are at Three.

$2 per MB with a daily cap of $28 and a monthly cap of $338. So if you're staying a month, unlimited data is $338.

Yes, but a dude named Frenda! With a ponytail! And a porn 'stache! And a soul patch! And a goatee!

You can't beat that in terms of pure douchebagotry.

Well walking down the street, looking at hilarious pictures of guys named Frenda, I think it's more apt to say "who cares if he makes millions per year scamming hongers, he looks like a fag and is named Frenda".

Because I for one don't give a shit how much money someone makes.

honestly, i think all of the providers in HK are pretty good, unlike the crap we get here in NA. Everything from overseas calling to data is cheap.

old-ish thread

how was the service for the iphone? data worked fine?
i'm hoping that an unlock will come out for iphone 4 on new baseband by the time i go to HK next month

anyone know anything about using blackberry on prepaid as well? if i can't unlock the iphone, i'll bring a blackberry instead

any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Does china mobile offer data + local + international calling?

I always used China Mobile because it's only $0.25 HKD per minute for local calls and NA

Going there in May
