mobile Broadband card

Jun 1, 2007 10:07AM PDT

Hi, i work in Los Angeles and i was interested in who has the best mobile broadband network so i can access the internet on my laptop wherever i may need it. I heard from the sprint commercials that they are the best but i was wondering if this was true or what have you. Any help would be spectacular.

Isn't there only 2 choices?

So ask which people have and think about each.

Here I hear mixed results so I can't call out a winner.

Need Help Setting up Broadband
Jun 16, 2007 3:36PM PDT

Here's the problem. We live in a NYC building that has Direct TV contracted through the building ownership. We don't have a phone line, only cell phones. we have been told that for whatever reason, Direct TV can't provide internet service to our building, and a lot of other people will not provide service unless we have a phone line, or use them as our cable provider as well. It sounds ridiculous, but I'm reallyh not sure what our options are at this point. We've looked in to mobile broadband, but don't really know enough about it to determine who the best provider is.

If anyone has some suggestions, we would be greatly appreciative.

Thanks.
