Mobile Vikings
[http://mobilevikings.com Mobile Vikings ]

Mobile Vikings is a online-only operator who has a decent price setting (at the moment). You can get a pre-paid data-only subscription for 12 euro per month for a gigabyte (this would be for iPad users). For 15 euros you can have both mobile voice and data.

JIM Mobile
[JIM Mobile ]

JIM Mobile is an MVNO on the Base network, who has a very good mobile internet deal. You can get a pre-paid SIM card in most telecom shops in Belgium who sell Base. You can use the credit on your card for mobile internet by sending an SMS "MEGASURF" to 1984. This will cost you 5 Euro from your credit, and give you 500 Mb of mobile data.

Base



Buy a "prepaid 24/7" SIM or microSIM in a Base shop for € 15 or get it online for € 5. This amount is fully converted into calling time. Use the "option surf & mail 10" by sending "SURF10" to "1912". This will cost you € 10 which will be deducted from your credit. Now you can use 500 MB of data on Base EDGE-network (3G is not yet available). After 30 days or after you have used up your volume, you can continue browsing the rates for a "surf & email" (= € 1 per 500 KB) until you activate a new option.
