I called AT&T yesterday and tried to see if they had any type of hifi/mifi hotspot device like Verizon, and they have nada, zilch!
I actually do not need a portable hot-spot, as everywhere I go has wifi, but I just seem to keep looking into this as I think it would be nice to have. I don't travel like other folks for business, so this was part of my decision to get the wifi only IPad.
It still seems odd that AT&T does not offer this, makes me wonder if this was a strategic move by Apple, and they leveraged AT&T to hold off on a device until a later date? hhmm....
