We'll be moving to fulltiming in the next two years and I'll be going with a Datastorm. I also tried the Sprint connection card and it was not much better than the Verizon.

Sounds to me like you need an external antenna and an amplifier to boost the signal in those fringe areas.
We have a Verizon air card plus an external antenna and an amplifier. While there are still places with no cell coverage, we're often surprised at the places where we DO get a useable signal for Internet...it can sometimes be in a slow area, but when we're in an EVDO area, speeds are faster than satellite Internet (which we used to have).
