I've been a Verizon customer since the late 80's, but once I found Millenicom, I let my Verizon data plan elapse. I chose the "Verizon" data plan from Millenicom since it uses the Verizon network and has the identical coverage. I have a 4G MiFi and I have a 20 GB per month data plan, all for $69.99 per month with NO TAXES, NO CONTRACT, and NO extra feels tossed in. Last time I checked, the Verizon 10 GB data plan was $60.00 per month PLUS tax, fees, etc.
One downside - you have to purchase the MiFi from Millenicom, you cannot use existing equipment for the "Verizon" service. When my MiFi arrived, it still had the Verizon sticker on it. Another downside is that you don't know your exact usage during a month. If I remember correctly, Millenicom will post your usage every Monday, but you don't have any type of real-time usage meters. On the other hand, you can call them, or email them, and they will tell your your usage.
I have been using Millenicom for about a year without any problems. The newer MiFi units that Millenicom uses (and Verizon) can have up to 10 simultaneous devices attached wirelessly. My particular device can have 5 devices attached.
