In a 2005 Frieghtliner Century Class Rig at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds! I'm with "The Warped Tour". We're playing here today and heading for Charlotte tonight. We're slowly making ourselves north for 2 gigs in The United States of Canada this weekend (Toronto and Montreal).

Oh cool! So you're not at the Casa Monica then.

So, uhhhh.... your rig has wireless?

Actually, Yes!

I'd go crazy(er) without my laptop and aircard. It's the only good thing about Sprint.

Cool. Do you have to be near a certain area or does it work off the cellular towers?

I would estimate that I have a 98% coverage rate over the past 10 months (the time I have owned it). I would further estimate that I have broadband coverage 75% of that time with the other 25% being comparable to dial up. It's $60.00 a month but well worth it to me. If anyone was thinking of getting one I would recommend you ask to try it out first in your home area. Make sure you are in the EVDO network:

One should DEFINITELY refrain from using one in Canada. Sprint wants $1.00 per KB there. I have a friend who was using his in Detroit and it registered him as being in Windsor. They tried to get over $1000.00 out of him!

That's awesome. And on the Sprint bill. Typical, though.
