I have taken the 2Gb limit to be data - irrespective of whether it
arrives using GPRS, EDGE, 3G or HSDPA. There is nothing to suggest
otherwise.

However the agreement that actually comes with the card and is referred
to on the order form does not include any such limit. It might be easy
to argue that the limit does not actually form a part of the contract -
at least the first time they impose "network protection". No mention
in the contract of VoIP either. It would of been easy for them to
include these two restrictions in the contract but they haven't bothered
for some reason.
