AT&T Unite for GoPhone Mobile Hotspot – (www.att.com) – $99.99

To better ensure you have connectivity when needed, consider the AT&T Unite for GoPhone—a mobile hotspot device that connects to AT&T’s wireless network and turns that wireless connection into a WiFi hotspot. The AT&T Unite provides *secure* internet access for multiple tablets, laptops, iPod Touches, phones and other WiFi devices. It works just like a WiFi hotspot at a coffee shop or at home, except it goes where you go. With no annual contract or credit check, you can simply buy data when you need it so you can stay connected to the Internet while you’re out and about.
