Why don't people get the point that, the advantage to EVDO / tethering that you can TAKE IT TO A LOT MORE PLACES than DSL will ever take you, or WiFi for that matter.<br><br>Try driving and maintain a WiFi connection at 65mph.

They are not meant for power users though you can watch quite a bit of streamed video for 5gb a month.

If it is was, then you would see a ton of people switching from fixed wire cable modem to these wireless solutions.  Hence the price has to be higher to balance demand with supply.<br><br>I work with a company called RovAir (<a href="http://www.rovair.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.rovair.com</a>).  We rent wireless aircards and other wireless products.  I agree, the prices are inline with the corresponding data plans on phones and the aircard plans.  Perhaps Verizon is more expensive than other carriers, but their coverage, especially in more remote areas, is by far more extensive.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[M Schenkel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 11th 2009 1:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon debuts MiFi 2200 portable EV-DO router]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/05/06/verizon-debuts-mifi-2200-portable-ev-do-router/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/05/06/verizon-debuts-mifi-2200-portable-ev-do-router/</guid><description><![CDATA[I use verizon wireless service for my home internet connection because otherwise I would be using dialup.  This sounds like a neat idae as I would be able to just use Wifi in my laptop instead of dragging the USB card around.  Also I should be able to use my TMO blackberry in Wifi mode. If I end up with this thing I'll even try to make a UMA call before never doing it again due to overage concerns.  I hate spending that much on internet but don't really have a choice right now.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[skyboxer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 14th 2009 3:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon debuts MiFi 2200 portable EV-DO router]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/05/06/verizon-debuts-mifi-2200-portable-ev-do-router/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/05/06/verizon-debuts-mifi-2200-portable-ev-do-router/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wonder if this could be used on Sprint or Verizon? <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 14th 2009 9:38AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
