Here's a Link to their available plans. http://web.virginmobileusa.com/broadbandPlans It sounds like a pretty good option for those that have cable/dsl or something else at home and want to have Internet available while away on vacation or ???

Actually, for US usage - thatsa good plan for Canadians going south. When I used Bell, i had to pay extra for US coverage - plus regular contract price and I got dinged 200.00 extra for roaming charges - even though I had the US plan. SO, these prices for time south are good without haivng to sign a yearly contract with Verizon etc. I could not see how much the stick was - or do they sell the sim cards ?

Just FYI on the subject of prepaid mobile broadband - the company i work for is now offering no-contract, no credit check, no SSN required, prepaid mobile broadband service that uses the Sprint EVDO mobile broadband network.
