I picked one of these up today and am fairly impressed. The only real downsides are the average 3 coverage and the crazy boot up process. Are three, very long button presses really needed?!

Steve, no, I don't think it does have Mac drivers so you couldn't necessarily use it as a dongle. But the wifi part will work fine.

Great review, helped me make the plunge to buy a MiFi unit of my own. Just added a 'first impressions' review to my blog, http://geekswithblogs.net/t..., and linked back here for your video review (why reinvent the wheel?).
