Travel Deal of the Day (August 30, 2010)

Clark Howard recently gave a rundown of the competitive landscape for broadband internet to go.  You can pay Verizon Wireless $60 for a limited plan with a contract, or you can save money.  How about $40/month unlimited with no contract - that is the current best offer with Virgin Mobile.  If you are paying for Verizon Wireless or a competitor, you are paying too much. 

If you do not currently have broadband and you are traveling to hotels charging you $10-$20/night for internet access, you should strongly consider broadband.  You may be able to earn back the money quickly, and with new service at a low price point and no contract, there is very little reason not to try it out.
