Heallun dogg just ask me. T-mobile month-to-month. $30/mo, unlimited free tethering, works great, only downside is my number was previously used by drug dealer.

Verizon/AT&T/other giant providers are literally a scam if you don't have a family plan with 90 people on it (and even then, maybe). seriously

really though I remote into work while my boy drives all the time. I've even played EQ on it (2 people) when my cable was out, not much lag. Smoke weed everyday.

T-mobile is terrible outside of urban centers. There will be lots of travel and i can't guarantee i'll be anywhere near civilization. Even the AT&T network starts falling apart in the crazy rural areas. It's pretty much verizon only, but their data rates are fucking criminal.

Yeah it's fuckin highway robbery paying $120 for 20gb of data month, but I really have no other option. It definitely took some adjusting going from uncapped broadband to this.

you're right though, coverage is terrible. Sadly Verizon is probably your best bet.

Get a Metro PCS phone, root the thing (watch it done on youtube etc. if you don't know how), and download pda.net or smart hotspot etc. The apps allow you to hide the data usage by stripping user info from the packets. 65 bucks a month for unlimited data (5g? for hotspot), runs generally at 3-9 down 1up, no contract.

NFC about national coverage but never had issues from Tahoe to San Francisco daily.

This sounds like a good possibility. I'll look into it but I think I'd like to have a technical advisor while I do it :P Rooting can be risky if you don't know what you're doing. Does metro PCS use the verizon network?
