In the 1st place what is the reason you need to buy/sunscribe fro 3G/broadband there?

To surf, most hotels for sure having free wifi or wlan. If wanna call back, just top up US$10 in your skype and using skype to cal back using the free wifi there..Honestly if you say you wanna surf internet during travel...dun waste your time-lah.. You spend time admiring sceneries, ppl , food & shoppings and why borther surfing and miss out all attraction. You can surf using the free wifi/wlan in the hotel.. Choose a hotel providing this service

Hey guys, before I explore through all 53 pages, can someone give quick advice? I will be on family trip on June. I will bring my parents to following places on first week: Hualien, Sun Moon Lake, Alishan, Taichong, Taipei. Afterward they will be flying back to Malaysia while I'll stay there for few more days. Apart from above places, where else do you think are must-visit spots? Thanks.

No need any maps lah.. U seldom using maps during travel wan. and if you're Taipei.. The most important maps is the subway maps not googlemaps haha/ Or get the free nokiamaps or look for free Garmin maps rather than spend unnecessary on 3G-Google maps
