@Nick: Newsflash! Virgin mobile also operates within the United States. The 'uses sprint's network' and 'available at Best Buy' didn't clue you in?

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I think this represents a fairly good deal. For the very occasional (but critical) use this would allow a company to buy the card and only use it when needed. Vacationing employees, power outtages, etc, this would come in very handy. Sure $20 for 250 megs seems high, but compare it to paying $720 a year for data if you only need it 3 random weeks a year.

@Stubtify: That was my first thought, though, the data caps and the $150 dongle make it easier and more appealing to just go to Starbucks, or Wendy's or any number of other places with free wifi.
