Optimization of expenses for mobile Internet

Having looked at the tariffs and packages of Russian OpSoSov, I saw a sad picture. The prices for the mobile Internet are clearly overstated and with constant use of the Internet, be it you or your devices that are closely tied to it ( for example, Android OS communicators, WM, etc. ) you will have to pay more than one thousand rubles for it.


And so, if your device constantly looks at the weather, checks mail, twitter, RSS, then the average Internet consumption is at least 5mb per day, if you update all services at an hourly interval on Android, then the device already eats 15-20mb per day, which is quite a lot - 70 rubles per day at a cost of 1mb - 3.5 rubles.
A way out of this deplorable situation was found at Megafon and it is not unlimited Internet packages or other promotions of this company, but simply “Package A” for many of my favorite Blokofon.

The cost of this package, depending on the "branches" varies, for the "Stolichny branch" -390r, for the "East branch" -250r.
What is the benefit? Let's calculate - for 390 rubles you get 75 outgoing sms, 75 minutes to Megaphone numbers in your region, and of course 1GB GPRS-internet. Even if you do not take into account the minutes and sms, then comes out 38 kopecks per 1 megabyte (390 \ 1024 = 0.38)

Of course, gigabyte is not so much, but enough for basic needs.
In order for Internet traffic to begin to be written off, change the APN: iphone instead of internet.

If in your region the megaphone represents this package, then the package can be connected by phone well, or in the worst case, come to Megafon's office and show them the iPhone you have previously taken from your friend. Note that this is a “Package” and not a tariff, that is, it connects on top of your tariff plan, without replacing it.
