Cheap wireless internet access?

[IHateMyJob2004]

Quite simply ... what is the cheapest device I can get that gives me wireless internet access (via cell towers or whatever).

BACK ON TOPIC:
Anyways, what are my options for a cheap wireless device? I want decent bandwidth. Maybe 3x faster than dial up is all I require. But I don't need DSL type speeds. I don't want a big bill jsut to have wireless access ... but I need to atleast look into it.

Thanks.

Work is for work, not checking your stocks.

Cry me a river. I'm sure you never talk to co-workers about non-work related issues, clock out when you go to the bathroom and never ever even giggle.

Stop pretending you work in dream land.

Why the LoL for hte other options? I actually would want a PDA type device or a phone with a very large screeen. I want a good sized screen where dpi is most important. Any ideas on that end?

Verizon EVDO + XV6700 or i730 or Moto Q or Treo 700w



I use my xv6700 on my $79 data voice plan, 450 mins, unlim data, In network calling, nights and weekends, free roaming, (dont remember rest)


Best features? The phone has wifi so I can go online without using verizon's network. but EVDO is pretty fast

You can do a bluetooth Dial Up Network or via USB cable to make it a wireless modem for your laptop.
