T&T: Aircards-More Info please

[Pascal Gademer]

you buy it and sign up with Verizon, Sprint or ATTCingular.  Most offer 
unlimited (with fine print) service between $50 to $70 a month (plus taxes)

speed vary from location to location... 3G (near DSL speed) is becoming 
available in more and more areas. I'm in Nantucket right now and ATT has 3G 
service.  I just brought a boat up here from Miami and had either EDGE or 3G 
99% of the time while underway.  (only dead spots where in NC between north 
of Moorhead City and Coinjock.

It's a little more than DSL or Cable but you can connect anywhere without 
having to worry about finding free wifi
