Unless policies have changed, you want to be careful if you are expecting to use Sprint as your full time internet connection for your PC...you'll burn a lot more data surfing on the PC than on a handheld generally speaking, and you could theoretically get hit for over usage and/or have your data plan blocked... if you use wifi like I do, for occasional tethering when traveling to check email, read news, etc, you'll have no issues... if you are watching a lot of video, downloading music, etc, be careful...
