 ciucca join:2004-05-24 Westfield, NJ 1 edit | Truth be Told Wireless data on a hand held device is a luxury not a necessity, that some people think it is due to marketing. The world operated fine before EVDO, LTE, and even wireless voice. The only way Verizon and other companies will provide good service at a fair price is if people stop buying these luxury toys, when they barely have enough money to pay the bills and buy food. What a bunch of suckers we are! |

 | Wireless data on "toys" may be a luxury, but will VZW's LTE limits extend to things like data cards? That's what I use (Huawei EC228) and it's my ONLY choice for internet access. T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint and other networks don't reach me yet and I can't find any information on future expansion in my area. It's VZW, satellite (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!) or nothing. |

 | You are correct. I have no access to cable (and probably never will). My TV is Direct TV. We don't have a landline phone because we DO have cell phone coverage, so why pay +$30 a month in taxes and fees for telemarketers to pester me?
WiMax is just a few miles to the north. I've been bugging them to put up an antenna/transmitter in my area but they insist nobody wants it.  |

 Killa200Premium join:2005-12-02 Southeast TN | Find out how far there antenna is, how high it is compared to you, and what frequency it operates on... then work with them to set you up. Several wireless frequencies that these radios work on will operate for MILES with the right setup and Line of Sight. |
