I don't have a SkyRoam, and have never tried or used it. I'm sure its a good device and service because it gets great reviews on Amazon. So this is not a review of the device, just some preliminary findings based on what I wanted to know before I spend money to consider reviewing or evaluating SkyRoam.

I had to dig a little bit about this for a number of things:

1. Where does it work?

2. How fast are the speeds?

3. Cost for the data?

4. What don't they tell you up front?

1. It works pretty much globally.

2. Somewhere between 3G and 4G speeds.

3. $8-$10 a day 'unlimited'

4. You only get 350MB of high speed. After that you get 2G speeds, which is very, very slow. "

"Note: Skyroam is not optimized for video services like YouTube, Netflix or other heavy streaming activities."

The answer to #4 pretty much makes this no better than what T-Mobile already provides for me on my phone. I can get slow speeds that are OK for emails, and light browsing already with no additional cost with my plan in many countries.

What I want to be able to do is upload photos and videos while on the go, and the SkyRoam only ensures that I can send and receive emails for $10 USD a day which is something I already get with my T-Mobile Plan.
