Although ReadyBroadband’s made generous increases in data allotments for their plans, will it be enough to compete with Virgin Mobile & Cricket?


Although ReadyBroadband’s made generous increases in data allotments for their plans, will it be enough to compete with Virgin Mobile & Cricket?

ReadyBroadband doesn’t list specifically which cards are available. From the looks of it, it seems like the Novatel U727, Ovation MC760 & Compass 597.

Readybroadband resells Sprint’s service. As such, their 3G speed & coverage reflect that of the parent network.

All ReadyBroadband 3G plans now give you more data for the same price. $25 for 300 MB, $45 for 1 GB and $75 for 2 GB.

For $50 a month, DataJack offers 5 GB of 3G prepaid mobile broadband. Device choices include a USB broadband card & MiFi 2200 mobile hotspot.


DataJack 3G coverage mirrors Sprint’s in the same way it does 3G speed. However, there is an important distinction.

While DataJack 3G speed can do Skype, VoIP and YouTube, that could deplete your 5 GB plan quickly.

DataJack 3G plans selection consists of one 5 GB plan for $50 per month. Nothing to get excited about here.

For $70 a month, Millenicom offers unlimited mobile broadband with either a device you already own or a device you purchase from them for $100.
