Only the Q9 series can use WiFi (and even then only with a mini SDIO WiFi card)

let me be clear because someone in pburg, nj didn't know this.
free nights and weekends does not mean free data on weekends.
his bill was over 5,000.00. they split the difference.
I would be hesitant to use any data without a plan.

The worry of running over got me to buy the unlimited data plan last year when I got my Q from the start. So between my cable modem at home and my Q I'm paying almost $100 per month just to access the internet.

Yep and I ain't kidding. Thats why the local rep said don't get the 10mb plan. Get unlimited or nothing, so until the 30.00 plan became available it was nothing for me.
How stupid can one be though to not realize unlimited nights and weekends doesn't include data?
