Virgin Mobile USA Broadband2Go



I am excited and ecstatic about Virgin Mobile USA's new rates for their pre-paid Broadband2Go service. I have been using their service for over six months and hoping they would increase the megabyte to price ratio.

Two months or so past AT&T announced a plan of $25 for 2 GBs of use, which at the time surpassed Virgin Mobile USA's previous rate of $20 for 300 MBs in a 30 day period. I never expected they would announce a $40 unlimited plan within a 30 day period!

Users have rightly dinged this service for lackluster speeds. You will likely feel like you're connected at just above dial up speeds, even though Virgin is using Sprint's network. In my case, I don't do many graphic intensive things so the Broadband2Go service is suitable.

If you occasionally need mobile connectivity to the Internet and don't want to rely on public wifi the Broadband2Go service may be for you. The device costs $79.99 with no activation fee, contract or Early Termination Fee. You pay only when you need the connectivity.
