You can't have looked very hard. At £50-£75/month for data charges,
you'd be better off getting an Orange San Francisco (£100 on PAYG), put
Cyanogen on it (unlocks it and adds tethering features) and use 3's
£15/month all-you-can-eat PAYG top-up package. GiffGaff do a similar
deal. T-Mobile used to (I'm on a T-Mobile £15/month rolling SIM-only
contract with all-you-can-eat data - in fact that's what I'm connecting
over at the moment).
