I’ve been using a MiFI 2200 as my sole internet connection (living where I do this is my best option) and it has severed me well for a couple years. However the battery is totally shot and I need a new “Something.” I’m going to be living out of my RV for a few months and also need some type of cell phone. So I’m considering getting a Verizon mifi 4620le or maybe a Samsung S3 (or similar) and use that as a hotspot and phone. I realize using a Smartphone as a hotspot will really drain the battery but most of the time I can leave it plugged into the laptop’s USB port. If I don’t get a phone/hotspot I’ll probably buy some minutes on my tracfone and just use that.

What do you think, mifi or phone/hotspot?

If you think a phone/hotspot will work any recommendations on a phone?
