apparently AT&T will let you get a prepaid data only package for just 20$ a month.
1. Get a go phone.
2. sign up for cheap package
3. dial # and ask for data package.
Really, if you can't get DSL or cable in your area, perhaps this could be an option? Dunno if cell coverage is better than those other options though.
Still, 20 bucks a month, can't beat it. Hell, perhaps you could use gizmo or skype over this and a smartphone for cheap unlimited cellular?
edit: oh yes, you can use the gophone balance to pay for the data package.
IOW, if you have 20$ of "airtime" you can deduct the cost of the data plan from your airtime
