You don't need to give them a cc#, you get a card from them that you can load cash on via their cash machines at their little office trailer. I never bothered with the cable tv stuff, I just wanted cool air and internet.
The internet is provided via an ethernet port in the pod to hook your laptop to or wireless, which is somehow extra and I never tried. You will get full access to a T1 line at 150KB/s full duplex for 24 hours for about $2.95 (if I remember right). The pod resets after 24 hours and you have to restart it. The biggest drawbacks are people smoking in their trucks while using it so you get a face full of ashtray smell when you hook up, the internet being shared with however many people are in the lot at the time, and people endlessly crying about how much they are entitled to the parking spots supposedly lost when IdleAire moved in. It's pathetic really, I turn my radio off to avoid it. |
