Verizon prepaid mobile data launches
| November 6, 2009 | Posted by Abren Michaels under Electronics, Verizon |
Verizon have announced a new set of prepaid data plans that the carrier is hoping will lure in some occasional mobile users currently turned-off by the contract offerings. As of November 16th, the Verizon Wireless USB760 modem will be available with a $15 daily access rate (with a 75MB allowance); alternatively the carrier is offering weekly or monthly rates.
For a weekly allowance of 250MB, you’re looking at $30, while 500MB to use in the course of a month is $50. The USB760 itself has a memory card slot for up to 8GB of storage, and is Windows and Mac compatible. We’d still recommend looking at Virgin Mobile’s pre-pay mobile data plan, however, as its rates undercut those of Verizon.
