Freedom Pop (Beta): Free 4G Wireless for Life

1 points by anonDataUser 13 years ago | 2 comments

It appears that Freedom Pop (www.freedompop.com) is now accepting orders for their devices that will give free high speed wireless for life (500 MB / month). Has anyone tried the service?

How are they paying for this?

Well, the cost of the initial device is $90. I suspect there's a comfortable margin on that. Beyond that, there are a variety of ways that you can pay for additional services. For example, $2.99 / month for higher speeds. You can also pay for more bandwidth ($20 / month for 2 GB). I ordered a device on Monday and got a confirmation that it will arrive in 4-7 days.
