Verizon now allows you to use your EVDO phone as a modem

February 2, 2006 by in Tech with 2 Comments

Verizon Wireless has changed its policy and will now let subscribers use several popular phones as high-speed modems for their laptops, company representatives confirmed Thursday.

The shift represents a major policy change for Verizon, which has traditionally restricted this type of usage in its terms of service agreement. The new plans are available starting today. A formal announcement will be released later today or tomorrow, company representatives said.

The only models that you can do it on so far are:
LG VX9800, Motorola RAZR V3c, Motorola E815, and LG VX8100

No extra dataplan required – the only catch – You MUST use a USB cable!

    Nope, it is their new policy…. Sprint now offers and additional $59 for unlimited data….

    It is only a matter of time until you can just use your bundled internet connection.
