Anyone have any experience with this setup? Work starts picking up the tab on my cell phone soon so I wanna decide if I should get an unlimited data plan on a PDA phone or just get a pcmcia setup for the laptop. I have a PDA phone now and never even use the internet yet always find myself wishing i had wirelees to D/L a song or show a website etc… anyone tried it? ---

we have it at work… it does the job… its hella fast in the major metropolitan areas… but everywhere else its about as fast as what you can get with your phone… ---

Buy a PDA phone and you can use a dongle and get on the interweb it’s not “supported” by verizon, but it can be done
