Most of my friends in HK use 1010, and pay around hk400 per month for unlimited data (including tethering), 3000 minutes of talk time, 100 IDD minutes, and 200 text messages. Meanwhile, when I was down there last week, I picked up a PCCW SIM card, which ended up being extremely expensive for me (i.e. a 20 minute phone call to Shanghai costs nearly hk100... I know I must have been some prepend number I could/should have used, but I didn't and I paid the price).
