Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"As someone who doesn't reside in the USA, I was wondering what would be the best way to get internet for my computer in the US for a couple of weeks? If it were Europe I know I'd look for some prepaid data. Is there anything similar offered by American carriers? A MiFi or a data SIM that I can tether from would work, but I'm trying to maintain a tight budget. Help!"
Hi Frank,
I hope you can understand why, for competitive reasons, we will not be publishing metro-area sales numbers. However, we are actively coming up with ways to be able to share with prospective customers the strength of the Dash Driver Network in their area. It is worth mentioning that even if you are the first Dash user in your area, your traffic experience is typically very good, thanks to our partnership with premier traffic data provider, Inrix. From there, it only gets better as data from more Dash drivers combine with Inrix's data to provide a pretty complete traffic picture of a metro area. Let me know if I can answer additional questions for you.
Dash, you should try some loss leading promotions. Your service gets better the more people use it... so give away units in major cities. It'll cost you up front, but you'll make it back in the long run.
