Hola mi amigos,
Since I like to keep an eye on my servers when I'm out of town, I always bring my laptop with me. I've been using it in hotels and anywhere that free wireless is offered (usually Panera's!), but I'd like to have the internet even more available, just in case. I like being able to make changes to my web systems right in front of clients, since it has a strange way of making my business look good.
Anyway, does anyone use the AT&T or Sprint wireless laptop card? I have an AT&T (Cingular when I signed up :cuss: ) cell phone, so I'm guessing I'd save some money with it, but I've heard that Sprint's card is faster, although service is (supposedly) not available in as many areas. My laptop has an ExpressCard 34/54 slot, not the older PCMCIA.
Does anyone have experience with either card? Is yours part of your cell account?
And, finally, what's the monthly damage, if you don't mind my asking? $49.95/month always translates into $83.27 after the fees are added ( :cuss: ).
Thanks!
