If it's decent, then it might be a good alternative to comcast, in areas which won't see FiOS for a while.

To put that in perspective, service on one typical 3G card currently runs $60/mo. They’re also touting no long-term commitments or contracts..." That caught my attention too! Methinks I can pull that USB thingy apart and make a nice Skype phone out of it ;) “…$50/mo covers two WiMax devices, such as a home router and a laptop card.
