www3coukI didn’t want to post until I had received mine… but I stumbled upon the site www.3dongleforfree.co.uk . 3dongle4free is run by Micro-P (a very large distribution company!) and sponsored by 3 Mobile.

You get a USB Modem with a Micro SD Card slot and the drivers and installation files all in the dongle. It’s very neat actually… plug in, and everything’s a go :)!

So… www.3dongleforfree.co.uk, Sign up, order your dongle for the £4.99 postage, and enjoy.

Just make sure that you join a bundle afterwards or else you’ll be charged at £1 / MB – but £10 a month on a free dongle with no commitment is pretty good!

This is just one part of a number of surprisingly pleasant IT experiences that I’ve had recently – smooth and intuitive! One of the key others being ‘The Sims 3′. More about that later!

I found out over on TUAW that the iPhone App Air Sharing is available free for the next week (ish). Air Sharing allows your iPhone (or Touch) to become a wireless drive for your PC / Macintosh.

I know that I for one am heading over to download it now.
