I'm not too sure.. I'd go w/sprint because if I read
right, they (Verizon & Sprint) both charge $60/mo but
Sprint's is unlimited access where Verizon's is .25
minute?  (I could of misread Verizons though).

I'm hoping the coverage is good because when I had
internet access on my PPC6700 I had access in Poth
which works for me.
