Always-Connected Everywhere Iconia A500

[tedpc01]

Since the Iconia A500 only has Wi-Fi, I got something the other day for non-stop connectivity. I picked up a "My-Fi" Wireless Access Point (WAP) from Comcast the other day. For merely $30 a month, I am always connected. Greatest thing I got since I bought my Acer Iconia A500!

That is a nice. Where is there coverage area?
I use my Droid cell phone with with Verizon and it works real well also.

While they have a nice, large coverage map they use to show you, unfortunately they don't have one to GIVE you! It's a 4G/3G product, btw, that and roaming. Around here, Seattle, Tacoma and Portland are all 4G along with their suburbs. When you get further away, you get 3G. I guess it takes a really rural area for roaming. It's only $30 a month and has a 1 year service commitment. I'm already a Comcast customer, but told her I am moving back East in about two months. Well, I can continue my service plan on this back home! It's a great device that supports five connections. Will find out more and post more if interested. I'm interested in who they lease connections from, or if it is multiple vendors. I really works great tho!

I like the idea.Would it work If I wanted to cancel my normal Comcast and get this then I could hook up my computers at home.
Or is there a restriction on the amount of devices to connect.
If not I dont see any reasion to keep my home Comcast.
Matter of fact I just thought of one If I'm away from home my daughter or anyone else at home probably wouldn't have wireless.
It would be nice if they combined both together which they could. But then they couldn't take any more money from us and that is the motive for them isn't it?

Yes, money is their motive! Actually you can connect five devices to this. Then there's data limit I believe....
