Exactly. For some... a $99 laptop + $60/month for Internet isn't a bad deal. How much do you pay for Internet over DSL or Cable ? Since this is mobile, you pay a little more, but to be given a laptop (sure ... its no Toshiba) for $99, its not a horrible deal. I'd just have to ensure that I 'could' take that SIM out and into another device (say my phone) and connect it to a 'real' laptop or PC if needed.
