can TMobile German WebNWalk stick be used with other services?
I bought a TMobile stick for WebNWalk service a few summers ago, really worked well for me in Germany and I could by more time at grocery stores at the credit card terminal - very convenient!
I will be in Iceland for a few weeks and note they have prepaid broadband plans at acceptable price points, and these mention putting the SIM into a broadband stick and you're good to go.
Would this likely work with the stick I bought from TMobile in Germany, it's a model E160G HSDPA USB stick, with a removable SIM.
I don't know if these things are "locked" or have proprietary firmware, etc. The TMobile Sim has the installation software right on it to run the service.
If anyone can offer enlightenment on this I would be grateful. If the stick definitely will not work and anyone has any idea of how much I'd have to pay for a stick that would work that info would be useful also, I can't find anything on that on the provider pages of Siminn or Vodafone
