Verizon’s laptop connect card question….?
Question by tomdabomba006: Verizon's laptop connect card question....?
I'm looking at verizon's laptop connect cards and they have two different types. One with 5 GB allowance and one with 50 MB allowance. What does that mean? Does it mean you can only be on the internet for so long or what. The reason I want it is so I can hook up a slingbox and watch tv wherever I go. thanks

Well that interesting watching TV where ever you go! I have the sprint air card it works great I've had it for one year it's unlimited for a locked monthly fee.

Verizon used to offer an “unlimited” plan, but would then drop you as a customer if you abused it. (It’s designed for checking your e-mail, not data-intensive stuff like using your slingbox.)
So I see they finally made their position clear. 5GB a month, max.
I have a SlingBox, and tried it out with my Verizon card, and the results were quite watchable, though the available speed varies moment by moment, which means that the slingbox will adjust the quality downward to ensure your viewing doesn’t “stutter.”
