That's cool, man. Stick with Verizon. If it works for you and you don't mind paying for it, great.

So by all means, choose Verizon, who prohibits video and audio streaming over EV-DO. Wanna listen to XM on the go via your laptop? Prohibited use. Wanna use your Slingbox to watch tv on the go? Prohibited use. Wanna use a webcam? Prohibited use. Wanna download more than 5GB a month? Whoops, sorry. Prohibited use.

Wanna pay more for a RevA data card? Sprint has the Pantech PX-500 that nets to free if you sign up for two years. Verizon doesn't even have a Rev0 card at that price. How about mobile broadband coverage area? Sprint beats Verizon in Rev0 coverage in addition to their obvious RevA network.

$59 monthly fee and 2-year contract are required for both Sprint and Verizon for the data card. Same price. So, you like Verizon? Go for it! But uh, for the same price, the same technology at better average speeds (www.dslreports.com/mspeed), better coverage and the ability to experience the ENTIRE INTERNET, I'll stick with Sprint.
