I have a verizon aircard that I usually use to ger online. If I'm at one of the company OC's, I use the free wifi. Also, some rest areas have free wi fi as do some truck stops. Before I got the air card, I tried using wi fi only, but it was hit and miss with availability.
Not only that, most times it's not free. Most places charge around $2 for one hour, $5 for 24 hours or a monthly fee. Seems a bit pricy to me. -

i have ATT. although i do not recommend it at this time (3G coverage is spotty) they seem to be getting better.

Free hotspots only.

If you dont mind me asking, which card of verizons do you have? they have a small gb and a larger card (I think) -
Ive always heard that an aircard can get pretty pricey. Has anyone tried teathering?

Verizon aircard myself. I need a reliable connection for planning, weather, etc., so "free" hotspots and truckstop ripoff wifi connections just don't cut it for me. Verizon's network is pretty well established, but I still find areas that it's hard to get a connection in. I use the PC5750 PCMCIA card.

Cyndie, I use the Verizon USB 720. It is very handy to have. When I first got it, I was living in an area where I couldn't get any other high-speed so it was GREAT to ditch dial-up.
