I'm using a mobile broadband dongle in my laptop now - it's a Vodafone dongle and I'm paying £32/month for unlimited broadband. There is WiFi in the staff accommodation, but it's just the hospital guest WiFi that is unsecured and on which I'm not supposed to stream/download anything, play games, or access certain sites (nothing dodgy, but things like Pick My Postcode are blocked as it's considered gambling, even though it costs nothing but a few minutes of time to win).
I can easily stream Amazon Prime (including HD) and YouTube videos, download new games, play games needing an internet connection (though it wouldn't be quite good enough for high-level competitive FPS games) and so on. I'm pretty happy with it. If I were going to invest again, I would probably go for a mobile modem rather than a dongle, so I could connect multiple devices. As it is, when I move into a house I'll probably go back to regular broadband as it will be so much cheaper.
Veggie - is that what you are paying per month?!! If so, I hope that includes line rental, but it still seems quite pricey! If you aren't getting line rental, it's absolutely extortionate!
