the random disconnections were reported by the previous user of my cdma model. i've had it for like 7-8 months now and it very rarely disconnects. download speeds vary a lot though
I also used it on the road from rawai, phuket to khao lak and it worked fine atleast until the checkpoint. also worked well in khao lak where i got the fastest download speeds ever (somewhere between 220-250kb/s dl'ing torrents)
location matters a lot. even small changes might affect the quality of service you are getting since you need to be quite close to one of their towers to be able to get good service.
they have a lot of them though and if you want to buy one they will let you try one out. just go to the office in the morning and they should let you try one for the day as long as you return it by the end of business.
and like i said the model the phuket office is selling now costs 6.5k and atleast last month they were giving 3 first months free
if you are travelling even a bit during the year and if you sometimes experience problems with your primary internet i would get this as a backup
