• Stay away
  I tried this card in serveral states, and it never gave me more than a quarter of the upload speed that Verizon promised, so I sent it back within the trial period. This was August 2007.
  So far so good.
  But for months the bills kept coming, like I was still using the card. Letters came in threatening to cut off service. It took a lot of effort to convince Verizon that I was not using their service anymore.
  However, because I am not a US citizen, I also paid a $400 deposit.

• Love this card!!!
  I live in a remote area where DSL and Cable are not available. My only options are dial up or satellite - both of which are horrible! I started using this card about 8 months ago and absolutely love it! It is not as fast as cable but it is so much better than what I had.
  I also love how portable it is! I can take my laptop with me anywhere and still have access. Even though there are a going number of WiFi areas I am not dependent on them! I can take my laptop everywhere I go and have instant access to... more info

• AirCard 595 Very Slow DSL & Customer Service Can't help
  I recently purchased a new laptop (Dual Core CPU running Win Vista) I installed the Verizon software with no problems. Basically, this is as slow as dialup. I am in an area covered by Verizon with EV-DO Rev A service (large city). I called customer service. I was on the phone with them for almost 3 hours. The tech tried everything. His recommendation was to return the AirCard 595U under the 30 day guarantee. I really wanted this to work, so I went an spent $120 to upgrade by computer's memory from 1 GB to 2... more info

• Dont recommend
  Previous post C.O. hit the nail on the head. In addition to getting dropped, when I could connect it was slower than promised. I also went round and round with Verizon's staff and took them 2 months to stop charging me. I was out $150 canx fee plus over $100 for the card. What a waste. I plan to cancel all Verizon services now. If you insist on getting this service pay the extra $20 per month and don't sign 2 year contract.
