Well I always carry a cord but I'd never have used it at those rates. How much was a glass of water??!! Last time I was in Bermuda was '79. It was expensive then. I wouldn't want to think about it now.

I'd loaded Fring on my phone with Skype and spent an hour walking around downtown Hamilton before giving up and buying the Digicel. I figured my wife calling me on Skype @ $0.12/minute and me paying $0.25/minute was not that bad for mobility. I was able to text her for $0.25 to call me.

Boingo Mobile lists exactly one hotspot in Bermuda: The airport.

I checked both 09's and Celtrek's rates in Bermuda: not good. I think you probably got the best deal on the island.
