NEW YORK, NY and BEDMINSTER, NJ — Verizon Wireless, operator of the nation's largest and fastest wireless broadband network, announced today its BroadbandAccess wireless broadband service is available to travelers in airports from coast to coast. BroadbandAccess from Verizon Wireless gives enterprise customers a fast, reliable resource to help them be productive and in touch with the office and customers when they are traveling, enabling them to tap into applications and tasks that are more suited to broadband data speeds. Verizon Wireless' BroadbandAccess gives customers the speed, mobility, productivity and simplicity ideal for mobile professionals in businesses small and large.

Adam Guy, director of the wireless practice at Compete, Inc., based in Boston, MA, stated "Verizon Wireless' BroadbandAccess makes business sense, both in terms of productivity and economics. Hotspots can turn up cold when you really need them, like when you are stuck on a runway, in a taxi, or on the side of the road. For regular travelers, the cost of hotspots can add up fast, when every airport, hotel and restaurant uses a different provider. BroadbandAccess winds up being the most cost effective way to stay reliably connected when on the road."
