I am retired, on a farm in Fingerlakes country of NY.
I use DSL via phone co landline for Internet feed. I
will never have cable here, just as well because like
in developing countries the future is wireless from tower
or satellite. The provider you choose does matter. It
matters for price, google Sprint merger and you will see.
Also coverage, tower placement,mountains, valleys matter.
I use Verizon for mobile phone because it works where
I live, not because of price. You also have to consider
contract lengths, if one applies. Please google Toshiba
Thrive Review, read Jul 12, 2011 review by Eric Franklin
as he compares it with other top choices (before Kindle
Fire released.) Toshiba does not have 3G so you can't
buy one with a AT&T or Verizon chip in it, but you can
tether it with a smartphone or other 3d party device (see
Amazon, use their search block, type in wireless tethering,
Go. One example is Aluratek 3G Portable Wireless USB
Router. On sale today for $73.99 I see. If you already have
a smartphone, trade on that? I also have called my Scottrade
Branch by cellphone and asked for assistance in a trade
and they were happy to do it, for regular $7 fee.
If you want, send me your phone no. tunisonfarms@fltg.net
and time to call if you still need help.
