My laptop is a 17inch screen. My kindle a Fire HD10. Too big, bulky and weighty to fit in. I only have a monthly 1GB data allowance which I don't want to have to overwrite by then also buying a regular (and expensive on top of all my other costs to get there every and back every month).
I would love to be able to but am pretty restricted by size, weight and costs ... and as I said, if needed, a kindle and laptop are easy to borrow when I get there.
PS I did try it once (bought an unlimited package) and tethered it but the signal and speed were so slow that when my data provider checked it, they refunded me the whole cost without me even asking for it. Plus when anyone with a smart phone came near me, they too automatically jumped on my unlimited data and slowed down even further. I couldn't even open my emails!! So to save weight and money, decided to borrow instead and go to them for wifi.
