<p>I am a subscriber however I don't use it as my daily Internet pipe.  So I can't really speak to how reliable it is in that regard.  I does drop carrier from time to time however it usually comes right back within a second or two with no connection artifacts.  I've even watched streaming video and had it briefly drop and reconnect w/o having to rebuffer.  I'm not sure I'd trust it for gaming though.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I also turn it on during the local historical computing club meetings and multiple people are able to access the Internet concurrently.  It's a battery powered device with 4-6 hours of life on a full charge depending on signal strength.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I do travel a lot and it's absolutely fabulous in that respect.  I've come to rely on having a very fast and available hot spot for both my laptop and iPhone in most any major city.  No more worries about hotel or airport WiFi or finding a McDonalds or Starbucks</p>
