[Novalug] OT: CLEAR for on-the-go-wireless

[Richard Barnes]

Right, with Clear you can get 3G+4G, using Sprint's 3G network and
Clear's WiMAX network.  Access to both networks is $55/month, or you
can get just WiMAX for $40.  I got their "on the go service" with just
WiMAX last week, and I've been pretty pleased.  My home isn't in their
prime coverage area, so I never get more than 3 of 5 bars on the
signal meter, but I consistently get 3Mbps down / 1Mbps up.
