anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

Broadband, and it gives me great coverage, it is 100% mobile and in 40 major US cities, this thing kicks ass!!!!!!!!

who else has one , and what do you think of it, what city do you use it in ?

Kathi with National Net has one she uses in ATL. I can't pick up Verizon where I live and I don't use the laptop enough to justify the cost while out of the house :( Sounds great though!!

Re: anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

what kind of speads are you getting and how does it compare to the old EDGE cards from att ??

Re: anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

I have a cable connection and the network is wireless on all of the home and home office computers. Not sure what card Im running but I can use the laptop in the backyard... never tried to go any further with it or had any need to.

The cam computers all run on DSL.

I've got the Verizon card. Speeds are around 200 to 400k. Slight lag, due to the Cell network, but other than that. Worth every penny for me.

I was a beta tester for the Nextel Wireless Broadband. Their system was much better. But I think they only did the test in the Triangle NC area. I don't know if it continued or if it's going to roll out nationally. It kicked ass. It was as fast as my cable modem.

Just out of curiosity how much does soemthing like that cost? I'd love to be more mobile

Re: anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

I'd be interested in a ATT / Verizon comparison too if anybody knows. My Edge card does the job but I'd go for faster.

Re: anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

I paid 150.00 for the card ( they have a 100.00 rebate though)

so $50.00 for the card, then service fr unlimited usage is 80 bucks a month
( not sure if they have smaller plans or not )

as far as the ATT comparrison I do not know .

Re: anybody here have a Verizon wireless card?
 

i have one, have never had a problem connecting.

att is now cingular, and their edge card is not quite as fast, but supposedly has better area coverage.
