It all depends on the usage scenario.

TruConnect’s own plan is $4.99/month + 3.9 cents/MB ($39/GB). It seems to me that just about any realistic scenario, you’d be better off getting service through Walmart’s IOTG. Ting has a higher monthly charge ($6/month) and about 40% lower data costs.

We really need a thorough roundup of mobile broadband plans.
