<< I've been reading the T-Mobile web site...there Hot Spot system (cyber cafes) just might be what I'm looking for...does anyone on the mail list have a T-Mobile account and rely on this for most of there internet connects...I realize that you must be in a location where T-Mobile is offered (Startbucks, Boarders, Barns n' Noble...)....appears service is offered at 5000 locations....they have month to month plan for $40 per month....annual plan for $30 per month... OK....you have your Hot Spot account....does each location charge you a fee....Hmmmmmm! BTW: Can we talk about T-Mobile cell service............same questions....>> I use T-mobile for 95% of my away time online. It's $30 per month for the all you can eat plan. If you have your cell service with T-mobile then you get the same plan for $20. No fee once you are on this plan. Otherwise, you have to pay hourly. No per location charge. Some T-mobile locations aren't even encrypted, just like a few of your neighbors. I don't even go inside sometimes. Inverter inmy van, and voila... I'm in like Flint. BenT |
