Which Device Should You Get?
If you’re in the market for a broadband card, the device of choice is the Sierra Wireless 598U. With a microSD slot supporting up to 16 GB of extra memory, it has double the capacity of the Novatel U760.
If you’re in the market for a mobile hotspot, then the only choice is the Samsung Mobile Hotspot.

It looks good. I’m a retired trucker, and I plan on slowly driving all over this again, and take in some sights I may have missed when I shot by them at high speed. Know what I mean? I sure hope this service is the real deal, about having free, unlimited data. I have my computer mounted police style, and it’s on almost all the time. Tell me that it’s true about UNLIMITED DATA, and I will sign up today!
