This looks like a great deal for those who have T-Mobile service. Find out more here.

Coverage is too limited for $20/month IMO

Yeah... I agree. Even if you are constantly traveling, it will be very tough to go and find T-Mobile hot spots in order to get $20's worth. Sure you can go to Starbucks and Starbucks are everywhere... But I want more coverage... i.e. all airports, all train stations, all hotels, etc....

$20 a month is too much? To have WiFi every monrning at Starbucks and Borders... Seems like a great deal to me, but I have AT&T....

I would rather go with Pay as you go option (though it is very expensive). It is a pain to run around for Starbucks or Borders. I would rather dialup from wherever I am. I would consider the unlimited option only if the coverage area improves drastically.

Actually you can also do a thing where you pay 5 dollars for a day. I was in Dallas Forth Worth International Airport and when I plugged my wireless card into my laptop it gave me the option of entering a credit card number in for a charge of $5 to access the wireless service.

But after 4 days of traveling you have already paid for the T-Mobile Wi-Fi. I guess if you don't travel as much as I do, or don't live in a Starbucks, this isn't a good deal.

It would be a better deal if that swill were cheaper.
