Is there a prepaid 3G SIM option for Data? I will be visiting the States for 2 weeks in July, and my parents are on dial-up!!! (Not only that, it's AOL).



I want to use my (completely unlocked) MiFi for internet access on 3G. Is it possible?



Roaming is out of the question. Charges are insane.



My only other option would be coffee shops. *sigh*



P.S. Hey Trumpy -- I'll be in San Diego. Wanna have a beer?

    Tonton, I've called AT&T repeatedly about a prepaid option with data for iPhone. They claim it isn't possible with the iPhone but I've not checked for the MiFi though so that might be a possibility. I've also heard about others find some options that allow 100 megs of data on e-hem, phones on AT&T that are NOT the iPhone but you'll have to Google a bit for those. If push comes to shove, Tmobile only gets you 2G but they are pretty cheap for a one month plan.



    There are several other options besides coffee shops though. AT&T does have their wireless network all over the place. Also I'm pretty sure all McDonald's restaurants all have WiFi now as well as do most public libraries.



    I'm a bit of a drive from San Diego but time permitting, would gladly drive down and have some brews. Hit me with the details via PM as it gets closer.
