cheap O2 Prepaid-Surfstick

Just a heads-up for people that might want a cheap option for mobile internet in Germany...

When I was in Berlin, earlier this week, I decided to look for a "surfstick" to use with my netbook. Since I only needed it for three days, it had to be cheap.

Most options were about €25 or €30, but at both Saturn and MediaMarkt, I found the O2 Prepaid-Surfstick on sale for €15, including five days free use (using five one time codes).

Of course the stick is a ZTE MF190, which by default is of course locked to O2 Germany. Given that this is a rather standard stick, this does not need to cause any problems for any future uses.

That is almost unbelievably cheap! Works out €3/day

(while you ususally pay €2,50/day for internet without a USB-stick)

Even better: Sometimes it's on sale for 11 euro at Saturn or Media Markt (which, despite the illusion of fierce competition, are in fact the same company).
