Most smart phones can be tethered and even provide a nice Wifi AP for
others?
I get really good data throughput even on 3g with Android O2 firmware on a
Dell Streak AT&T.
I had a Verizon USB modem in the old days when you had to recompile the
kernel on Ubuntu to use it with USB, but I really don't think the expense
is worth it, anymore, due to phone tethering.
