often more

While this is technically true (and works at the moment), be aware that this
kind of usage is not allowed by the T&Cs. So please don't come back
screaming in a couple of months when Three suddenly decides to charge for
out-of-allowance usage (and using the "3internet" APN makes it much easier
for Three to tell that you are not using the add-on as intended).
