Verizon Ellipsis Jetpack 4G LTE Mobile WiFi Hotspot - MHS700L (Verizon Wireless)

This is definitely a disappointment and a waste of $200+, so buyer beware!
Here are the gotchas:
1. It does not work on 3G, not even a little. I bought it for a rural area where 4g is not available. Documentation stated that it worked in those areas. Not so. I had an older Mobile hotspot that was great but after several years use, no longer held a charge. Newer means not compatible with slower speeds.
2. I bought the device from Amazon rather than getting locked into a contract. But then the next gotcha. In order to get wireless service, the telecommunications company (in this case Verizon) has to send a little SID card. Depending on the deal of the minute, you're looking at connection fees in addition to data usage fees along with this fee and that fee, all because you don't have a contract.
3. Finally I decided it wasn't worth the monthly charges when it didn't work where I needed it. So without a contract, all I had to do was cancel, right? Ha-hah! Gotcha again! Anyone who has tried to cancel any service with Wireless companies know how difficult it is. All the handy and convenient ways of signing up or upgrading service are not available. You must call the "Mother, may I" line, endure the transfers to the super secret cancellation department, doggedly call back when they drop you. THEN, be prepared for the computer being down, we'll offer a discount, and the myriad of other stall tactics. When and if they process the cancellation, be sure to check the bill closely for the monthly or other service charge. Just like Freddy Krueger, it's back, again and again.

It's good this thing is the size of a hockey puck, because that's all it's good for!
