That's an interesting question that probably only AT&T can answer. Be
sure to phrase the question to them perfectly clearly so you can get an
accurate answer, i.e., "sometimes I want to use laptop 3G, and sometimes
I want to use 3G on the phone, but I don't want to pay twice." I suspect
that the answer will be that you have to pay double, because both
devices could be used simultaneously. If you were doing tethering of the
laptop through the 3G phone, rather than using the laptop connect card,
then you would only pay once.
