I've been Googling this for an hour now and still can't figure out what's happening.
Somebody I know wants to buy a device for quick "Internet Access" without pulling out his laptop.
Quotes because I am *assuming* he means web pages... which implies a certain minimum screen size to me.
He has a Verizon Android phone with data plan.
Is anybody with a Verizon account actually doing this without paying the extra twenty bucks a month?
PdaNet? FoxFi?
I'm seeing BlueTooth and USB as the only possibilities because I read that Verizon has cut off WiFi with Android 4.4.
I'm halfway to telling him to look at the Samsung Note 3 and the 5.9" HTC phones instead of a separate device - assuming he can live with the screen size for whatever he calls "Internet Access".
Anybody have real-world experience here?
