I signed up with Millenicom (Sprint Reseller) back in November.
I looked at going the Sprint referal method, but decided that 30 days was not enough time to trial the service, and if unhappy I would have to pay the cancelation fee. Sprint referal, for those that don't know, is the same price as Millenicom $49.99 for unlimited data in the US.
I travel often, 2-3 weeks a month, so I was able to test it driving and stationary. I have to say that I am very satisfied with the service. I have the Franklin CDU-680 unit. I have so far been in multiple area's in the East Coast, and West Coast, and the service is very reliable. I average 700 - 1200 kbps in Sprints "REV-A" territory, and 700 - 900 kbps in their National data network (1xtt). When you go into a roaming area, your lucky to get even dial-up speeds. That is where the problem is, but it is better than nothing at all!
It has been working so well, that now we purchased 5 more units for my sales territory managers, and ditched their in-home internet services.
I have only had to call one time to their service department, and I am VERY impressed with their service. They actualy answer the phone, and don't have to wait on hold. That is a major plus for me, and my company.
