The most common mobile broadband standard used is 3G. It has the advantage of getting your mobile device connected nearly everywhere under the sky of the country or city that your mobile broadband provider covers. Wi-Fi isn’t really the good solution for mobile broadband because it has a serious coverage limitation. 3G is great but is still expensive, and what makes it so is the limit you have on your traffic. For instance, you may start a plan $10 with only 1GB download, which is not much.
If you need mobile broadband Internet connection on your mobile device, if may be for different reasons. Most people need it for things other than checking email, surfing or spending hours on Facebook. VoIP is an interesting way of using your mobile broadband, whereby you can make free or very cheap local and international calls.
