There is $20/month charge (Maybe not $20) but there IS a charge for this feature. It includes 2GB.

Mobile Broadband connect is NOT the same thing as the 3G Mobile Hotspot. The Mobile Hotspot is a Google feature - not Verizon. I didn't have time to snoop on my husband's phone but when I glanced through it, it looked free to me.

You are correct, they are two different things. However, it  is a Verizon option. I believe once you atttempt to use it, you are taken to a screen to subscribe.

just touch the icon. you will clearly see that you "need the 3g mobile hotspot feature from vzn wireless in order to use this feature."
