The promise of of 4G speed and 4G coverage for 98% of Americans looks bright. But what about 5 GB or higher data caps?

There are 3 kinds of mobile broadband. Postpaid, prepaid and rental. Postpaid offers discounted equipment in exchange for a long term contract. Prepaid offers no contracts in exchange for full price equipment. Rental offers no contract or equipment ownership in exchange for a higher overall cost.
