		<description>Actually to be honest with you, I have not had anything less than high class service from DataJack. I have tried the other &quot;big name providers&quot; and all they want is to get you in a contract and screw you over. Datajack doesnt have unlimited prepaid broadband anymore but neither does anyone else, and on top of that. They don&#039;t require any credt checks, how can you beat that?</description>

		<description>Other information (please don&#039;t ask me to list each of the dozens individually) indicates that Datajack did have a contract to resell T-Mobile, not Verizon.  However, the hangup seems to be that they had a falling out with T-Mobile shortly after beginning their service, and T-Mobile pulled their authority to sign any new customers.  T-Mobile is honoring existing customers and continuing service for the time being, but will not activate any new subscribers sold by Datajack.  Hence one can interporet the &quot;out-of-stock&quot; notice as a cover for the real problem, which is &quot;looking for another carrier&quot;.  All of which is depressing.</description>

		<description>Data Jack Seems To Be A Fraud. There has not been any activity or response from their company or customer service and they supposedly have been &quot;out of stock temporarily&quot; for the last two months. Maybe they bit off more than they can chew or they don&#039;t know what they are doing. I knew this sounded too good to be true. Check out their website and see what I am talking about. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.datajack.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;www.datajack.com&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>How about the VoIP brands? Did you find anything about those, like Voip Inc closing down with debts in millions, then WQN somehow emerging? Your Verizon guess would be unlikely against that context.</description>

		<description>This is a GSM service...not Verizon, people.  They refer to EDGE in the FAQs and, if you look at the map, the only actual 3G coverage is Yellow... not much at all, just like AT&amp;T. Also, since it says &quot;The Data Jack rides the Fastest Growing AWS 3G Broadband Network&quot;  That means it is on AT&amp;Ts network.  AWS = AT&amp;T.  Datajack is promising a lot when they say you can do VOIP, and video confrencing and anything else. Yes, you CAN do it..but how good will it sound? Big difference.</description>

		<description>In online quibbles, I fully understand it&#039;s easy to take the other&#039;s words out of context. Still, I have to ask you to not put words in my mouth. No where did I say that this outfit is a fraud, nor that their business model isn&#039;t credible.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You don&#039;t have to know much about business or business models to understand that a company that just pop up pretty much overnight, with a track record of losing money, isn&#039;t one to rely on for something as critical as your communication needs, not when you&#039;re paying $140 up front, and $40/month.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;That, and any modicum of common sense should tell you that reselling &quot;unlimited 3G data&quot; for substantially less than the telco, at a time when the telcos&#039; 3G networks themselves are straining under the load of just the smartphones&#039; 5GB/month requirement alone. That USB modem is to be hooked up to a computer, and a heavy PC user can burn through 5GB in a day. The phrase &quot;too good to be true&quot; should set up the biggest red flag of all. But may be you&#039;re the adventurous type with some cash to burn, eh?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The PT Barnum reference is actually about the suckers, not about the con man.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In online quibbles, I fully understand it&#39;s easy to take the other&#39;s words out of context. Still, I have to ask you to not put words in my mouth. No where did I say that this outfit is a fraud, nor that their business model isn&#39;t credible.</p>
<p>You don&#39;t have to know much about business or business models to understand that a company that just pop up pretty much overnight, with a track record of losing money, isn&#39;t one to rely on for something as critical as your communication needs, not when you&#39;re paying $140 up front, and $40/month.</p>
<p>That, and any modicum of common sense should tell you that reselling &#8220;unlimited 3G data&#8221; for substantially less than the telco, at a time when the telcos&#39; 3G networks themselves are straining under the load of just the smartphones&#39; 5GB/month requirement alone. That USB modem is to be hooked up to a computer, and a heavy PC user can burn through 5GB in a day. The phrase &#8220;too good to be true&#8221; should set up the biggest red flag of all. But may be you&#39;re the adventurous type with some cash to burn, eh?</p>
<p>The PT Barnum reference is actually about the suckers, not about the con man.</p>
