Anyone have experience renting a mobile broadband modem?

It fell off my to-do list for the longest time but I'm considering renting a broadband modem for my laptop so my registration desk will have Internet access at our convention next week without having to sell my soul to the hotel's overpriced provider.

Advice & warnings welcomed!

I [heart] my Sprint wireless broadband modem. It's a USB model that works with Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Sprint is the only provider I've found whose "unlimited" data plan really is unlimited. At the time I was shopping around for a broadband modem, both Verizon & T-Mobile had data caps on their "unlimited" plans, with seriously high charges for data over the cap.

You can also try a Spring wireless broadband modem for 30 days, and return it for a full refund.

Not that I'm suggesting anything of the sort...
