>> I highly recommend a MiFi, available on both Sprint and Verizon.
Thanks; I’ll look into it.
>> However, unlike most broadband companies, both Sprint and Verizon have a 5 gig data cap
I don’t stream a lot of stuff so I may be OK. What happens when you exceed the five gig cap? Your service stops working? They take your firstborn child?
Ha nope, they just raid their college fund. From their Mobile Broadband Plans page, Verizon Wireless' footnote is:
* 5 GB overage rate is $0.05/MB and 250 MB overage rate is $0.10/MB
Sprint's is identical:
3G coverage nationwide: 5GB/mo. in total or 300 MB/mo. while off-network roaming. Additional monthly usage over 5GB costs 5¢/MB.
