    That website sells out so fast. I've tried for several deals but they're always gone in an instant. But it now if you really want it!

    Nice price for anyone trying to use data access outside of US. Just buy a prepaid data SIM in any country and put it in.

    Nice #4, i hated how they removed the tethering from the iPhone. If I'm paying for unlimited data, I should be able to use it however I see fit, especially when the technology is all there.

    I think the problem is that too many finance people are up there making decisions that they aren't qualified to make in the first place.

    Yes it will work.

    All you have to do is in the software (I think Connections Manager or whatever comes with it) ensure that the APN is wap.cingular instead of isp.cingular, and that the username is WAP@cingulargprs.com and password CINGULAR1 . That way you won't be charged icky PPU data.

    And I tether with my Samsung with my iPhone SIM.
