Two months time and 4GB of data for $40. I looked into Verizon but the monthly line access fee is ridiculous in my opinion. Straight Talk works for me since I only use it for banking.
I've only chatted online with Verizon and Sprint but it sure seems that it can get expensive in a hurry. If I remember correctly, Verizon wanted to add a $20 a month line charge to the monthly bill for the data charges.
All I really need is 3GB/month when we're not "on the road"... with the monthly line charge it gets to be $50 a month plus the cost of their device and taxes.
I have a Millenicom hotspot that gives me 20GB for $89. It's 3G/4G LTE and that's nice when we are hooking two or three devices to it. Just wish they had a
middle plan... 10GB for $45 would be nice. Dream on.

I'm looking at a hotspot from Straight Talk. Device is $80 and then you add data, pricing starting at $15 for 1GB for 30 days. You refill as necessary. It's my understanding it uses Verizon towers but may limit your speed, but I don't think that will be a problem for us as we just need coverage when camping as we don't have smartphones yet but do like to check email, weather, etc.
Google Straight Talk Hot Spot if you're interested. Here's the link to the Data Plan website. Hotspot data plans
