For me roaming would cost 3.40 EUR per MB, while the "expensive" local plan seems to be 1 CAD per 10 MB (virginmobile.ca prepaid, pay per use). -- Michal Čihař | https://cihar.com/ | https://weblate.org/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Whoa, I can pay 0,60 EUR / 50 KB; but I also have day and week passes
at 3 EUR / 20 MB / day or 10 EUR / 75 MB / week. (Always find out if
you have any such weekly option, per-volume rates are crazy expensive).
