The product has been well reviewed. I just wanted to point out what a great idea it is: Package WiFi and cellular modem in a little device you can carry in your pocket or purse. The product lets you take a WiFi hotspot with you and it works everywhere where’s a cellular signal. My MiFi is on Verizon so it happens to work almost everywhere in the US (except in the lobby of Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica, CA where I am right now). It worked when I landed this morning and took a taxi to the hotel. It works in my hotel room in Boulder or in Santa Monica (and I don’t have to pay the stupid fee for the hotel WiFi, which often doesn’t work). My particular MiFi came from Verizon, which also supplied my new Blackberry Tour (the upgrade from the 8830), so I got a deal where the MiFi was essentially free (it was an upgrade from my USB cellular modem). So I got a really cool product (well, it does get warm when it’s turned on) for free. Thanks, Novatel!
