Mobile internet in New York City
score:2
A friend recently referred me to Karma, a no-contract pre-paid wifi spot that you can take with you on your travels. While I haven't used it firsthand, my friends give it a thumbs up. Amazon indicates that coverage can be spotty depending on where you travel, but since you're going to New York, you shouldn't have a problem. The company is based out of NYC.
Here's their official site: https://yourkarma.com/

If you're skeptical, as New York resident I can tell you that it's difficult to go more than 5 blocks without encountering some type of coffee shop or Starbucks that offers free wifi to its patrons.

I would not buy a 4G/LTE hotspot, as your hotel will likely have free WiFi. Starbucks has free WiFi through Google (and its fast), and are every few blocks. Also, there are often free hotspots for Comcast and Time Warner subscribers called CableWIFI and TWC that broadcast from any customer's wireless router. All you need is the subscriber login for Comcast or Time Warner, assuming you have a friend anywhere in the nation who uses those services.

If you are staying in Manhattan you should have no problem. All the Starbucks have free wifi also the new free wifi booths around the city. They are like phone booths but you get free wifi. Free Wifi LyncNYC you have a lot of options. I live in Manhattan and work remotely never had issues finding wifi. Even some of the train stations have wifi
