Wifi from 3 offers mobile broadband in the form of a WiFi connection. When you use a dongle to connect to your mobile broadband service, you're generally restricted to using it with a laptop or desktop computer, as you need to physically plug it in. With MiFi you have a wireless signal, which you can connect to with any WiFi enabled device, like your iPod touch, or your laptop, or both at the same time.
This is their Pay As You Go option with 3GB of start up data credit included in the price.
