While other providers typically limit Internet service to 5 Gbits/s and charge high fees for overage, DataJack says, it imposes no limits or overage fees and offers 100% unlimited mobile Internet access at a fraction of the monthly fees charged by other carriers. Also unlike other mobile Internet providers, DataJack does not require a two-year contract, nor does it charge an activation fee. The company doesn’t require credit checks or upfront deposits either. And, it doesn’t charge expensive fees for early termination. 

Measuring 76 by 27 by 13 mm and weighing 22 g, the DataJack USB modem can store up to 8 Gbytes of micro SD memory for data, music, images, or other digital files (see the figure). It plugs into any standard USB port on any PC or Mac to provide a high-speed Internet connection. Available online and at selected retail stores, it costs $99.99. Its unlimited, high-speed nationwide Internet access costs $39.99 per month.
