Unlimited GPRS in Hong Kong?

I've finally found two service providers that offer Unlimited GPRS deals.

Sunday/Vodaphone:

http://www.sunday.com.hk/portal/serv...d=108#section3

and

People's Phone:
http://www.peoples.com.hk/p_tariff_vas_data_iso.jsp

The People's phone offer seems to be limited and from what I've heard the coverage might be a bit dodgy.

Anyone know any other providers that offer unlimited deals for less than $200 HK?

KIA, in what way do you think the Peoples offer is limited? I've been on it for about 6 weeks now, and it seems to work for me...

As, incidentally, I've mentioned here before, along with mentioning the Sunday offer What prompted this thread?

Cheers

bingo is on a distinguished road
How about Global Roaming GPRS plan? I'm on CSL, I called People's too. But both of them don't have this kind of plan. CSL only has it for Backberry :-(

Bingo

VmLinuz : Their (peoples) website says that the offer is limited to 12 months.

What prompted this thread? A cunning plan...

I'm looking for good unlimited use gprs plans too. There was another thread where a poster said Peoples sms had a 70% success of being delivered.

Do you mean unlimited BlackBerry data service? If so, do you mind pointing me to the Smartone Vodafone url?

I went to the Sunday store to find out what it would take to switch from Orange. The sales drone was not aware of the GPRS plan.

Tried to email their customer service, from the email address on their site and I get this.

The e-mail address could not be found. Perhaps the recipient moved
to a different e-mail organization, or there was a mistake in the

yo Disco,

not sure if this will help u or not... I don't think it is unlimited... i haven't really looked at it too much recently. from memory very expensive...

dataplans:

and handsets

BTW if u know how to install the correct modem drivers into ur laptop, most 2.5G fones with bluetooth can act as a GPRS modem via bluetooth dongle too
