Wow...That's kinda high! I'm paying Verizon $25/mo for EVDO to my Nokia
N800 from the ROKR Z6m as a BT modem. $60 is over DOUBLE!

The trouble with Aircards is you have to buy another phone number you can't
use for anything plus pay for broadband. It's a scam.

Plug your sellphone into your laptop or bluetooth it....much cheaper! Just
buy unlimited data service, which I think Sprint also sells for around
$25/mo more than the sellphone bill.

You can also use it for the crappy stuff on the phone, if you like.
