Best config for pre-paid Internet connection.

The telcom companies are starting to sell little USB modems charged up to 3GB worth of broadband to navigate the tubes.

What do you think is the best configuration to use the internet connection at a minimum while... browsing the internet!

do you think disabling images and abusing hard-disk caché will do the trick?

Images and Flash content and some media webs with sound are the more weighty.

For saving bandwith to the max I suspect Opera in Turbo Mode, if I got it right that's using the Opera Mini compressing proxy like on cell phones :cool:
But 3 GB is a LOT, so yes, KM without flash or javascript etc. should suffice too...
OOPS forgot that without any further settings flash is only blocked if javascript is ON :-/

Here e.g. Aldi (discount groceries) sells wireless broadband 30 day flatrate including 5 GB traffic for 14.95 Euro. Unles You download Linux distros or other iso-cd with programs You never use the 5 GB up in 30 days. Would be about the same with 3 GB.

If You mean 3 GB with unlimited time?
Install no flash and music player.
Unless You want to use these media.

You would set Your cache to reuse much often & refresh, download only when cache is out of date or once per session. Yes, maybe disable or bar images - it saves also - but not very much.
