Verizon Wireless and AT&T Offer Prepaid Mobile Broadband Plans: Anticipation of a New Competitive Environment

Two of the major wireless operators are finally offering prepaid mobile broadband plans. For the longest time, mobile broadband access for your laptop required a contract with pricing based on monthly access and a usage cap usually of 5 GB. These plans were priced in 2006 at about $80, which changed to $60 in 2007. Leap Wireless entered the market with a prepaid plan in 2008, offered at $40 per month, with a 5 GB cap, but coverage was restricted to Leap’s metro markets. Sprint now offers a WiMAX/CDMA service for $69.99 per month with a 5 GB limit on CDMA and unlimited usage on its WiMAX network.
