I was just going to add that if you want 3G most countries have a cheap prepaid that you can purchase. We do exactly the same for our phones when we go to Bali. Costs us about 70c a text from Bali on our phones with global roaming and can buy a SIM over there and send them for less than 1 cent!! Happy Holidays to you both  :-* :-*

How wonderful for both of you girls going to Singapore, one of my favourite  places. You will find free Wi Fi everywhere. Be sure to take a suitable adaptor though most hotels supply them.

We were in Singapore last year and bought a sim card for the 3 days from Singtel.  It was brilliant to have acccess to maps and google wherever we were.
Have fun

Yes it was for the ipad and they have plans based on the number of days, 3 days suited us perfectly, I think it was 15 Singapore Dolllars.  Enjoy

I'm just in Langkawi, Malaysia, right now in my hotel room searching the forum on my iPad with the wifi connection. We had the best satay last night and some fresh fish from the front of the restaurant ( in a giant ice display) that you choose and they cook for you anyway you like with whatever sauce you choose. We also had gai larn with chillies  (blow your head off strength!)  and salted fish. I love all the hawker places and  am inspired to get all my Asian cookbooks out again when we're back. Truly amazing place!!!
