3G has horrible latency problems and slow speeds.
Please provide basis for this claim.

clubs:		 buying a new laptop, you have a selection of at&t, sprint, or verizon cards- if they integrate it, I would expect they would run with multiple providers and allow different chipsets at assembly so not to alienate customers.

I've used AT&T 3G and it is horrible. I highly suggest just looking for Wi-fi hot spots then wasting $40 - $60 a month.

 As long as I am traveling within AT&Ts 3G coverage area I know my laptop will have decent internet connectivity. Can't say the same for wifi. The last trip I took without the integrated 3G card active in my notebook I was frustrated by hotels and airports that charge an arm and a leg for wifi access. Never again.
