Pre-Paid Wireless Internet options (3G, 4G, ??) in Reno, NV
I'm looking for a reasonably priced, decent coverage wireless internet (pre-paid) in Reno, NV. I just need a USB stick, no mifi etc. I'm wondering what typical speeds are like, and what carriers offer it (I'm currently in Australia - not familiar with all the carriers in the US.)

Best answer: Check out Virgin Mobile's Broadband2Go. One of the options is a USB stick. According to the coverage map, Reno is covered.
I'm not sure AT&T or Verizon or T-Mobile offer USB sticks/"laptop connectivity" on their prepaid plans. Prepaid is not as prevalent in the US as other countries.

In the CDMA world, Virgin Mobile has unlimited traffic for $40/month prepaid, which might be your best option. No idea on speeds.
