As far as I know, it's download-only. No physical disc.

You could google "Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition file size". That's all that comes to mind.

here it suggests that the download is 2.4GB i only get 3GB a month that would use up most of my monthly limit. are there any other sites that will download the game burn it to a disk & sent it in the mail for me?

Maybe you should go for the excellent sequel Tales of Monkey Island, which is a lot smaller per episode. Unless you really want the original right now.

Yeah, I hope you're only paying like $5 a month for that connection, Rorie...

That's really neat! It sure beats the heck out of a phone like + high speed internet. But 3 gigs won't do me good in the long run.
Need my gaming.

How does it work? Do you plug in something from your computer to your phone?

What is the average transfer speed going through the wireless phone service?

provided you have a usb port you plug your wireless modem into a usb port (software is installed on the modem) once installed & plugged in you have web access. no telephone line is required

depends on reception but most of the time web surfing is very fast

spleen if i paid you to download that huge file & burn it to a dvd. would you do it for me?

You'd be better off putting those extra couple of dollars into a better connection, but I guess it could be arranged if you wanted...

i'll look into it & discuss it with my mother (the connection is registered under her name) but if we agree to you to burning the game for me. how much would you ask?, would it be in australian dollars? & what methods of payment would be available?
