wireless internet

[greek]

i travel alot and need to get on sbr and bookmaker websites , is a black berry or lap top the best on the road? how much is service , whats the costs?

[raydog]

check with your cellphone provider.. verizon has the best wireless card for laptops but sprint isnt bad either imo. the card is around 75 bucks and its around $50 bucks a month for the service. have never had a problem whatsoever with my verizon card

[greek]

thanks ray dog , so you prefer laptop over maybe a blackberry then?/

I have a Sprint card that I use and it works great.

How fast is it in general?

[diogee]

I had a Verizon card and is was slow as Shit....might have just been my service area.

[greek]

so all you guys like laptops over blackberrys , right?

[guitarjosh]

Yes

[diogee]

It would depend how often you are using it greek...if you are going to be using it constantly and in many different places then the Blackberry might be a better choice. Likewise if you are using it in one place for several hours then of course a laptop would be better.

[greek]

mostly for the forum . email and online casinos til i get home ---- so mostly 9-5 when at work

[diogee]

In that case if you are not constantly moving place to place throughout the day then a laptop would probably be the better option.

Alltell has a card that is so much better than that bulky crap that sprint or verizon will give you. Its 59.99 a month and well worth it.

[diogee]

Oh Shit I forgot that Alltell has them now...going to have to get one of those so I can cap games at work.

[Kellen]

Ive had mine for 6 months now and its nice. I havent lost service yet and Ive been in some pretty rural areas with it. Plus its small, not like the verizon or sprint one.

[diogee]

Does it stick very far out of the laptop...the one I had from Verizon stuck out quite a ways and my laptop fell off a desk and broke the card.

[Kellen]

[diogee]

Thanks Kellen...sticks out about the same. Guess I will just have to be a little more careful this time around.

[Kellen]

Ive banged it into tables before, its held up suprisingly well.

[diogee]

That is good to hear...I'll have to give it a shot. Thanks.

[greek]

Sorry Dudes --------- I Travel A Lot ,in The Rural Farms During The Day , So Your Saying A Blackberry Is Better?

[guitarjosh]

The size of card you get would depend on what size your laptops card slot is. Sprint does have smaller cards.

[treece]

i don't even know what a blackberry is.

[greek]

its a name brand of a cell phone with internet access like thing

[treece]

how much does a blackberry cost?
