I'd suppose that your multi-part kit costs more.

I've thought about the 3g->wifi router thing with VoIP, except that verizon's 3G service on my USB dongle is spotty on my commute. Not to mention the fact that I'd need to basically haul a pack with battery to keep the WiFi cloud operational for any device I carry.

But...but but...the 3G dongle is paid for by work...and I could rig up a lighter adapter to power the 3G -> wifi gizmo....
hmm
