We had been using a Verizon MIFI 2200 hotspot for awhile with good results as our portable internet. My wife was getting ready to do a couple of flying trips and wanted a tablet to take instead of the laptop to keep up and entertained. I looked at a few different options and discovered the Samsung tablet through Verizon can be used instead of and as an upgrade to the hotspot. To keep this short, we switched, she is happy with her new toy, and it works better than the old 2200 as a internet connection. We used it on our last camping trip with family in other campsites all sharing the same connection- worked flawlessly, no increased amount of data usage, no additional cost monthly over the old 2200. The big difference is it's not just a piece of hardware, but a useable neat little computer toy at the same price- of course except for the $500 purchase cost!
