Mobile Broadband

Sprint Broadband CardYou might think that with only this one post today that it’s a kind of lazy day in Holts Summit. I wish. For the RW, it’s time to mow the yard, weed and trim, run errands, get in a proper workout, help with house cleaning and cook supper. While supper is cooking I am taking the time to do a little bit of computer work.

For example, I’m setting up this new Sprint Connection Card on my notebook. Sprint now has their EV-DO broadband working in most major cities and to get that high speed internet connection you need a card like this. My old one just won’t cut it. However, with a 2 year agreement these are cheap. Then I’ve got an unlimited data account for $59.00/mo. I am usually in Sprint service just about everywhere so I’m hoping this will save on those $5 to $11/day connections you get hit with everywhere (airports, hotels, etc.). I’ll bet I’ve spent twice this monthly fee in the last month for example. So . . . we’ll see how it works. They promise great high speed connections and I’ve heard good things about it.

I’ll get to try it this coming week in Raleigh, NC and then in Portland, OR.
