Anyone from Norway or with good knowledge of Norwegian mobile-internet?

[sakr]

Hi!

I'm considering going to Norway for a couple of months. During my stay there I would like to have some mobile internet connection, preferably based on GPRS/EDGE or UMTS (depending on the technology localy available).
I've read sofar a Norwegian pre-paids comparison on http://www.prepaidgsm.net/en/norway.html. It seems that the Adecco Cash offer is the cheapest (their price is 6NOK/1MB = 0,75Eur/1MB).
I was wondering if anyone, either from Norway or with good Norwegian mobile internet market knowledge, could advice me a good data offer?
The best offer would be for me some unlimited data tariff (or with a big limit, for example 1 GB) for a fixed price. Because I'll be only visiting Norway for a not defined period of time, only pre-paid solutions are acceptable.
Does anyone have any experience with Norwegian data plans or offers? Do you know any better than Adecco offer?

Greetings!

Consider that those Norwegian pages here on PrepaidGSM are rather old... I have to check them to see if there are news... Anyway with Adecco seems to be only € 0.76/MB for data.

Right, but they are the only one source of information available when you don't know the actual situation on the local market.
Possibly they have launched some new mvno pre-paid offers, but how do I get to know their offer or even brand?
Well, I will have to check out if all the data concerning Norwegian offers is still up to date.
That's why I asked you my "pre-paid gsm forum" friends about your personal experience in this area .

For MVNOs in Norway take a look here:

Anyway I took a quick look last night and most of the offers looked unchanged...

Any news in Norway on Data? Adecco is still at 6 NOK/MB, does anyone know details like APN Settings, billing etc? Where are Adecco Cards sold, only online or in stores?

Edit: Settings can be found here: https://netcom.no/ota/

Since I wrote that post I found out that Telenor has an offer of "maximum 50 NOK daily" for data. It means that you're charged 20NOK/1MB, but after exceeding 2,5 MB of data traffic (cost 50NOK) you won't be charged anymore till the midnight. It's a standard offer available to every post-paid and pre-paid customers, but I haven't tried it personally.

Sounds even better. Have you heard of Teletopia? Their Website still says GRPS is free.

To conclude this topic, I bought a Telenor Sim and the data rates are exactly like you wrote. Seems to be the best deal for PrePaid data in Norway
Netcom offers a similar package with I think 25NOK / day maximum charge, but unfortunately this is only available to PostPaid customers.

Telenor it is then.

Now, how can I get a simcard delivered?

Also Netcom has a similar option called DATAmania, with a monthly fee of NOK 25 (about 3 euros) and a max expense of NOK 25 per day you should have unlimited surfing...

About Telenor I don't understand Norwegian very much, but I think our Swedish friend can understand something more...
