Re: Should have used...

I wouldn't want Sprint for an embedded service provider. They don't use sim cards. The business focused customer wouldn't have this as their main portable unit. Just as a supplementary unit. As with other devices with built in HSDPA, you can pop out the card and use it on your other device. With Sprint, (don't know about Verizon) you are tied, no sims.

Re: Should have used...

Good point... if the provider (CDMA) won't register your ESN, you're screwed. With SIM card, the card is provided by the carrier, and I'm going to assume the data card is unlocked (wouldn't make a whole lot of sense to lock it)

Verizon is the same way. But why not use Qualcomm's Gobi solution. It'll do both CDMA and GSM. From my experience, CDMA feels faster, at least where I've been with it.
