Re: Who will want a laptop with $60+ forced data plan for 2 year

But there are competing standards as well. I don't want an integrated EV-DO laptop card either, even if they could make it so you could switch between providers easily (CDMA would be a great standard if it wasn't so carrier-controlled), because if I wanted to use HSDPA, I'd have to have two 3G devices inside my laptop.

Plus, an external antenna could get better reception. (Probably not an issue with plastic laptops)
