Sprint offers broadband service, useful anywhere within their cell phone

intend to subscribe when we move, using it for home, business, and marine
applications.

Yes, I have internet access through my Sprint phone but it is too slow
(400 msec ping latency) to support a virtual desk top environment.

It is fine for casual web browsing and EMAIL however.

How is your ping time to something like google.com ?

I don't know but their website will tell you. I haven't subscribed yet.
Will do so in a month. This I do know...I watched a friend install one in
his laptop and it screamed. Just as fast, if not faster, than my cable
connection.
