That thing that plugs into a computer is also a cellular connection and also requires additional charges.
There is no free lunch when it comes to internet on the road other than hooking up to someone's free WiFi.
Most phones can be tethered to your computer and you just leave the phone plugged in so it doesn't kill your battery. In most cases you can use up to 2GB/month for about $20 in that manner.
