Why the Sprint 4G USB Device U1901 is a Bad Idea for most people

The Sprint 4G U1901 is a new Sprint USB device, but personally, I don't think its a very good choice for most people.  

The reason for my hesitation with this Sprint Mobile Broadband device? It is a 4G only device which means it will only work in limited areas in comparison to the much larger 3G coverage areas. There is one advantage to a 4G only device, and that is that it is only $49.99 a month versus the normal $59.99 for a dual band 3G and 4G device.  However, the U1901 only makes sense if you already get 4G in your city and you only need it there, as it won't work AT ALL in a 3G area. And even if it suits your Mobile Internet needs now, you are out of luck if your needs change down the road.  Until 4G is much more popular, I would recommend a 3G and 4G device like the Sprint 250U, which by the way is on my list of the Best Mobile Broadband Cards. 

For a small segment of people the U1901 will be a great choice, just don't be one of the people who make a huge mistake by not being aware of the limitations of this device!
