Hi Folks,
I am planning to take an unlimited data plan from t-mobile for my laptop using card. Has anybody had this plan before can any body suggest something else.

Well, Tmobile's is GPRS data, so it'll be slower than Sprint's 1xRTT data. Plus sprint has more coverage, so you'd be able to use vision in more places.

But, as far as I can tell, Sprint doesn't have an unlimited plan for laptop cards so those points are kind of irrelevant. $80 for 300MB is more than a little insane.

Yikes, and the next 300 MB is $614.40.

I thought it was 80 for unlimited data with an aircard on sprint. This may have changed, can anyone else confirm it?

those are too expensive while browsing on a laptop i would rather buy a t mobile one for $ and 29.99 pay $10 at wifi coverage so when i have to download a lot i prefer going to a nearby starbucks

Thumbs up ya gotta love unlimited data

Sorry jdb8167, you must be looking at the consumer plan $80 for 300MB. it is the more expensive. the correct business plan $80 for unlimited is at the link posted above you by ctnchrisw. Both of these are still current info. And free connection card online at freephonesnow.com puts the icing on the cake. Unlimited data rocks!
