  <pre wrap="">This needs to be confirmed with Nextel themselves..
but I was just looking over the market before
Christmas.  At that time, Nexel offered their internet
services (complete package - not modem, but connecting
through an "internet phone" for $15 unlimited time on
top of the regular phone service ($30 was the cheapest
base package).  I was told by the sales person that
they don't "cut off" internet usage after so many
minutes like many of their competitors do.

Again, please confirm with Nextel.. but it's a good
place to start.

faster then 14.4kbps. My cell cell service gives me
19kbps but it disconnects all the time so thats not
very reliable. I have looked at some wireless modems
but I've only found ones that cost $500. So please
help me.
