First I'll discuss an option which I currently use, then I'll list some of the uses I have gotten from the service... Free reliable national Internet service is offered by the company FreedomPop You pay for the device, then are allotted 500MB of bandwidth per month at no cost. FreedomPop offers both home and MiFi hotspot devices starting around $40.00 dollars.  National coverage is offered via FreedomPop's partnership with Sprint. If you need more bandwidth per month, they offer various options which range from earning extra bandwidth by way of signing up to partner promotions such as Netflix, to trading data via social networking.  You can also purchase more bandwidth by selecting any of their affordable monthly plans. They even offer rollover. I was able to ditch my monthly iPhone service plan once it was out of contract. I now pay nothing for mobile phone usage. I transferred my cell number to Google Voice, installed an app called Talkatone and wireless connect my...
