[Hidden-tech] MIFI - mobile internet

[Kevin Phillips]

T-Mobile do allow tethering and now actively support it, used to be
unofficial !!!
Give them a call and they will help you out or look it up on their
website/user forums.
I use a Blackberry so can't help you with the specifics of the Android,
sorry.

My friend is looking into getting a mobile hotspot. The best deal
seems to be Virgin's $40 a month unlimited plan
http://www.virginmobileusa.com/mobile-broadband/.
The coverage for that is Sprint. Can anyone tell me how is Sprint 3G
coverage in the Northampton, Amherst, and Greenfield areas?

Also, other suggestions for internet on the go? I see AT&T and Verizon
both have similar plans, but without an unlimited data option.

Or is there a way to do a tethering thing with a t-mobile android
phone (that she already has) and a laptop?

Thanks,
Tamar
