Is this before or since its change of hands in mid-December?

edit: what can people tell us about Wyless? If this deal has just been announced, is that a change of provider, or is Wyless reselling T-mobile anyway?

Prepaid 3g data service in the US is not as widely available as in other countries...whether it's GSM or CDMA based. Tends to be more postpaid long-term contract or recurring monthly postpaid. Prepaid wireless broadband data (the heavy duty type used on laptops; not just handset web surfing) is relatively new here.

Suggest the following for prepaid nationwide coverage:

VirginMobileUSA MVNO using Sprint CDMA network: Mobile Broadband Service | Virgin Mobile Could be activated and left dormant for up to one year. Caveat is data is best for light usage (rates are a bit expensive) and is limited to the native Sprint network without off-network roaming (but the good news is it is largely 3g).

AT&T offers a prepaid broadband plan but 3g coverage is spotty and they are a bit expensive: AT&T offers prepaid wireless broadband | Signal Strength - CNET News

Verizon CDMA offers a prepaid broadband plan with extensive 3g coverage but it's pricey: Verizon offers prepaid wireless service for laptop users | Signal Strength - CNET News

T-Mobile offers 3g (or in some cases high speed 4g) through resellers like Datajack and others, but coverage areas are somewhat limited.

I use an ISP in Oregon called Millenicom: Welcome They do recurring credit card billed 3g data service on Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon. I use their 3g Verizon service (US$60/month for 10 gb of data). It's a good service but it's not true prepaid.


Phones/Wireless Devices: Doogee S90, Isatphone Pro, Amazon Kindle 3G, SkyRoam MiFi device, Karma MiFi device, AT&T Liberate MiFi device
Sim Cards: T-Mobile (Mint), AT&T (Mifi device or Kindle), Koko
Satphone: InMarSat
Broadband US Wireless Data: AT&T postpaid, Sprint (Karma Mobility prepaid)
Broadband International Data: SkyRoam
VOIP: Skype
