Internet access

anyone have this from t-mobile?

For 30 bucks a month, you get unlimited wireless internet access. I'm sure speed isn't too good. But not bad for traveling, etc...

Thoughts?

it's slow as hell. so much so that it's only practical to use basic features like checking your email. but, if you have a web enabled t-mobile phone, like a moto v600 or better, you can get their unlimited t-zones plan for $5 per month. there are plenty of WAP sites that let you check your yahoo homepage info, email, google, mapquest, directory listings, movies, weather, etc. etc. works great for me when traveling. at least during the daytime. if i have to get more detailed info. i just wait til i can get back to the hotel and plug in my laptop. hey, it's 5 bucks a month. works for me.

Just to be clear...

This is a card for a laptop which allows unlimited internet connectivity.

They charge @$80/mo - while Tmobile charges $30. Big difference.

yeah, but my company pays it and I don't think it's that much, I can check the invoice tomorrow at the office and let you know.
