Basically, I was about to take a trip and found that the hotel where I’d be staying wanted to charge me extra for Internet access.  I had been thinking of checking out using cell service for my Web access for a while, but this forced the issue.  I purchased the broadband modem at a mall kiosk on the way to the airport.  It only took a few minutes to install the software and get online access.

The speed is sufficient for everything I need to do on the road.  And literally, I’m typing this post in the right seat of the Jeep while my wife drives down I25 between Albuquerque and Santa Fe on the way home to Taos, NM.  Be careful though, as the supposedly “unlimited access” isn’t.  The allowance is generous, and probably will not cut you short for all your normal web work.  But, uploading a lot of large files or watching videos incessantly may take you into the overage charges … and you don’t want that.
