Hutchinson throws down as well with a great offer.
If you are a 3HK customer then you will want to check out the iPad MicroSIM deal which is competing mostly with Smartone-Vodafone and PCCW as we’ve already announced.
If you are a limited user you can get a 50MB data plan for HK$98 or go on contract for unlimited for $188 – or go unlimited and NO contract for $200.
The race to sell you a data plan for tomorrow continues!
Just in time for the iPad launch tomorrow Smartone-Vodafone braves the Black Rain warning to send us their price plans for the iPad.
Smartone-Vodafone is so confident of the service they are offering, that its coming to you contract free so you can cancel anytime and move to another operator.
Here comes the first official data plan for your iPad.
Last night we told you the confirmed date for the iPad in Hong Kong was this Friday, July 23, tonight we share with you the first operators plan for the iPad.
PCCW Mobile has 3 plans for you to choose from – they are quite tricky and ask you to pre-pay a bunch of cash but we have a feeling the other operators will have similar plans so its going to be a battle on network quality and speed over price for us in-a-rush Hong Kongers.

It’s true — there’s an app for everything.
Ever since the crazy idea of iPhone apps came up, we knew that it was going to be a huge success. Soon after the release of iPhone 3G, there were apps for almost anything– games, alarm clocks, even managers for menstruation cycles. Well, OnOne has just proven that the iPhone is capable of doing almost anything with their new app, DSLR Remote.
As it’s pretty obvious from the name, we’re not going to explain again that this is app turns your iPhone into a remote for your DSLR camera. With this app, you’ll be able to control things like the shutter, aperture, and white balance. Also, if you have a Live View camera, you can also get a live stream of your camera’s viewfinder.
To use this app, however, you’ll need to connect your DSLR camera to your computer with an installed server software. Then, you can control your camera with your iPhone or iPod Touch through a WiFi connection to your computer. Since most photpgraphers use a portable Macbook to check the photos this is a great tool. One reason you may want to use it is to perhaps take a photo of yourself. You’ll be able to take your time and adjust the picture instead of just setting a timer and having to hurry back to your place to smile for the picture.
Currently, this app will only work with Canon EOS DSLR cameras. Nikon users may be a little disappointed at the moment, but a version for you will be available in mid-July. if you’ve got a Canon, you can download the Lite version now for US$1.99/HK$16 or go all out for the full professional version at US$19.99/HK$160. Read up more from the developers website at OnOne Software website.
