Hi

Can't speak for Vodaphone but I have dealt with three people who have bought these usb modems on 3 and even though they were listed in a coverage area, not one of them worked in a useable fashion. I would stay clear unless they guarantee you it will work in your area.
Taking them back and getting a refund was a hassle in every case.
