Virgin Mobile & Millenicom prepaid mobile broadband emerge as the winners over AT&T, Cricket, DataJack, ReadyBroadband & Verizon.



Cricket 3G coverage has increased by 250%, while rates increased by $5. In addition to launching their 1st mobile hotspot, overnight shipping is free.

Is 250% more Cricket 3G coverage worth the $5 rate hike? See a side-by-side comparison of old vs. new 3G coverage here.

Cricket 3G speed hasn’t made any improvements. With a 50% hit or miss satisfaction rating at DSLReports, this isn’t their strong suit.

Cricket Wireless plans are not only prepaid but cheaper than regular mobile broadband carriers like Sprint, Verizon or AT&T by up to $20 per month.
