do I need a cable that goes between the two? I have a trip ahead of me and bringing the laptop with a connection would be key! I have the motorola V710 right now

Re: Scott - Verizon Satellite card
Broadband w/ the satellite card is normally $80... but if you have cell srevice with Verizon, then it's $60...
how fast is DSL compared to Broadband??!?!
So there is a way to use your phone as the modem?!? let me know how well/fast that works scott.
It would be a crazy good deal to get phone service AND internet for just the cost of your cell bill!!!

No crap, I am going to have to poke around the net for that stuff.
