Places like US Mobile, Twigby, Tracfone, Virgin, etc all use one or more of the major networks for their service. For instance, T-Mobile is currently advertising their home internet service for $50/mo. Metro PCS also uses the T-Mobile network and is charging $20/mo. I use US Mobile with their smallest plan on the Verizon network at $5/mo (limited min/text/data).
