Personal Wi-Fi Bubble - where and when you need it
The Novatel MiFi 2200, creates a portable, personal Wi-Fi hotspot that can be shared with up to five devices. It will be available this month from Verizon. They NYT summarizes the options as, "If you just want to do e-mail and the Web, you pay $40 a month for the service (250 megabytes of data transfer, 10 cents a megabyte above that). If you watch videos and shuttle a lot of big files, opt for the $60 plan (5 gigabytes). And if you don’t travel incessantly, the best deal may be the one-day pass: $15 for 24 hours, only when you need it. In that case, the MiFi itself costs $270."
