Just a suggestion, Sprint should really consider to find a better data kits for all Sprint users!
Everytime I go to Radio Shack, I see some cheap data kits with 1 feature which cost US$ 29.00, plus a cable that cost me another US4 29.00...US$60 to purchase 1 software with 1 feature and 1 cable? My goodness...

There is really a better option for Sprint and Radio Shack. I travel to Asia last month, there is something called Handset Manager, the part number is MA-8512 for Sprint phones..with the package price of US$ 29.00, includes software(6 or 7 features I forgot), data cable, and the cable is a charger too!

what if I am in a place that has no internet access, no place to buy a connection card? And I am in an urgent situation need to sign on Internet? I ask this question just because I travel alot, sometimes I do not rent a car since I only stay in the place for 1 day, and sometimes the hotel does not provide any internet services.
Is there any solution?

But the connection cards are US$ 150~300, and it is only for notebook computers. For a traveler or a student issue, this is just not convenience for any of them though.
Still, I rather spend US$ 29.00 to get this handset manage product, I can both sign on internet when I need it, or charge my phone (no need to bring my charger) during my trip.
