I have the "old" Macbook and I was wondering if there was an aircard that was compatible with the Macbook that is on the Verizon network? If there is not, do I have to buy AT&T service to use the aircard?

Thanks,

yes you can just get the USB air card from verizion

or if you get the express slot one you can get a USB adapter for it off ebay

just did that with my new macbook works perfect
 
Make sure that the Verizon USB is Mac compatible...some are some aren't.

I have the USB720 from Verizon and it works exceptionally.
 
i've been using the um150 for the past year. it has worked great with all my macs and pc's.
 
So...

So, the product in the link below will allow me to plug the product into my Macbook's USB port and I will be able to log onto the Internet and surf the web and check my emails from anywhere by connecting to the cell networks? Anywhere I am that has cell service I will be able to connect to the Internet?
