Charges will be as for the mobile internet plan. Otherwise u can turn on the mobile internet sharing option on the phone and use it to surf via usb. this will be charged as rconnect charges i think.( i have not tried this so not sure) Edited March 29, 2010 by doc_anurag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
