Jun 5th 2009 5:16AM No, I'm not happy. I don't want my netbook to be under a data plan contract. I just want to tether it to my existing phone.

Verizon HP Mini 1151NR hands-on and impressions {Engadget}

May 18th 2009 8:27PM My comment was aimed as if one had an existing line of service and with regards to the cost of data, not the netbook cost. Personally, I'd rather tether my phone so that I can use the connection on any desktop/laptop computer.

VW Basic 450 = $39.99
VW Connect 450 = $69.99 (Unlimited Data)
VW Tethered Data Cost per Month = $69.99-$39.99 = $30
VW Mobile Broadband per Month = $59.99

Monthly Savings = $30 x 12 months = $360

It's $360 / year cheaper to tether one's existing phone than to have both a phone and a broadband plan.
