I have wanted a way to access internet when there was no wif-fi. For a long time I tethered my Windows mobile phone.

But about 3 weeks ago I bought a Virgin Mobile Pay as You Go USB 3G device

http://www.virginmobileusa.com/mobile-broadband for $99.00

and a $20 card which will last 30 days. I've really been happy with the choice. Much less hassle than tethering and it's been faster.

I have not downloaded any video, but I've been to about 5 games and I run the Gamecasts for 3-4 games and cruise the net in general and I still have almost 2/3 of my time left.

If anyone is considering it, I recommend it.
