Some interesting responses and misconceptions.
I signed up for the Verizon 4G internet service because it is cheaper and faster than my current DSL service in my old house. My DSL is roughly 3 MBPS downloads, while the 4G connection is 12 MBPS. Up loads are roughly 1.5 and 4, respectively.
In our new, more rural environment, cable and fiber optic DSL are not available.
I posted my original message hoping that someone had some real world experience. But it seems to be a very new capability. From what I can see, the main real limitation is the monthly data limit.
On the Verizon web site, I can't find the equipment we got at the Verizon store. Too many options and lots of confusion. I hope that we haven't made a big mistake.
Thanks,
Gordon

>> There is a line of Terminal code that will search for Java components on your Mac. I'll see if I can find it, but you can do a web search and find it also.

Frankly, what I did was to turn off Java and wait to see if anything complained.
Nothing did.

Don't think so.
I was reading my mail on my iPad (NO Java), came to your claim above, tapped the URL, and it opened YouTube to his videos. I tapped the first and it played perfectly well without Java.
