Virgin Mobile Broadband Cards & AirCards

Prepaid Mobile Broadband Review

The Ovation MC760 is the only broadband card offered by Virgin and is identical to the Sprint U760. The only difference between the two is how it looks and the price ($150)

That title surely does say Virgin Mobile Broadband Cards & AirCards doesn't it?

Hate to burst your bubble but right now there's only one Virgin mobile broadband card. Hopefully sometime soon they'll add another one so this title won't let anyone down.

Caution: more bubble bursting on the way

The Virgin mobile broadband card available is the Novatel Ovation MC760. This card is not new. As a matter of fact, it's sold by Sprint under a slightly different name. You may know it as the Ovation U760.

Due to the fact that a full in-depth review has already been done with screenshots to boot, I'll let you read about here since there are no functional differences between Sprint's U760 and Virgin's MC760. They are the same broadband card just with different clothes.

What I will do for you is throw this 4 minute unboxing video of Broadband2Go from YouTube. While it's lengthier than it needs to be, it does a good job of showcasing the Broadband2Go 'top-up' cards as well as the actual broadband card after purchase:

What's different between the two cards is the price you will pay. While you may get deals through our partner LetsTalk to get Sprint's U760 for free (discounted thanks to contracts), the Virgin MC760 will run you $99.99.

In addition to that, for now you can only snag Virgin Mobile broadband cards from Best Buy. Luckily, it'll still support the site if you get it through these links.
