With more cities being blanket in the quick glow of WiMax every month , 3 one thousand pep pill are decease to start seeming archaic , tight . Clear ’s iSpot hot spot rent iPhones , iPads , and iPod Touches get a taste of the delicious 4 G hereafter .
Clear ’s iSpot can serve as a hotspot for up to eight Wi - Fi enabled devices at a fourth dimension — its sitesays it was optimized for Apple ’s roving devices , whatever that means — while running on its rechargeable battery or juicing up over USB . Of course , you could always connect your iDevice to whatever other Clear hot spot might happen to be around , but it probably wo n’t be white or shiny or optimize .
The gimmick , which looks a lot like a Mighty Mouse , or a measure of max , will be usable August 10 for $ 99 , with a no - contract bridge , $ 25 monthly plan for unlimited data point . Not too bad , if your city has already been given the WiMax treatment . Because there ’s no buzzkill worse than waiting for a dashing new iPhone or iPad to suck down a pageboy over 3G.

Update : Today and today only , you could sack the iSpot itself for $ 29—70 % off .
Update 2 : Arsdiscovers why this is so cheap , when the stock CLEAR programme is $ 40 . It ’s dedicated to just Apple devices — in that , it detects what devices are plug into and can only let them connect if it ’s an Apple twist . If you want to unlock it to all devices , they ’ll bump you up to the $ 40 a calendar month plan .
Of course , if you ’re on a laptop computer , it ’s in all likelihood rather easy to mime an Apple equipment by changing some scope , but severely if you ’re on , say , a BlackBerry . [ Ars ]
