We are thinking of going to Sierra Vista area for the rest of the winter and possibly year round. We do not have the funds for the 'resorts' so are looking for a basic RV park with full hook ups. We have our own satellite so do not need cable. We are thinking of Sierra Vista due to the summers not being too hot (I consider 90s not as bad as 100s) and the winters are not too bad. My husband has VA medical so anywhere between Sierra Vista and "Tucson would be OK.

I have read this thread with interest. We are going to be heading down south (Quartzsite, Yuma, etc) then back to the NW for the summer. I use to use my cell phone for slow internet when nothing else was available. My new computer had windows 7 of which the Verizon software is not compatible with the older phone. I have looked into the Verizon broadband card but it is limited to 5 MB. I play Farmville on Facebook and games on pogo so that would be eaten up fast. I read with interest regarding the MIFI 2200. But it seems it has limited battery life. I was wondering if I can get a newer 4g phone, pay for the data plan (which run cheaper than the broadband card), and connect to the internet using a USB. We have to update our phones as I need to get one with chaperon for my husband (he has Alzheimer's) but I will need one with internet access to use the chaperon capabilities. That is why I am wondering if it will work as a 'modem' for my computer. Being 4g I am assuming the speed will be much faster than my current cell phone. I have contacted Verizon once but they want to sell. I want to go in informed as much as possible.
