I use an Aircard all the time. I have also used a mobile phone via its link capability and even slurped off an occasional open WiFi connection, though reception of WiFi is spotty and more and more people have secured their access points.

I don't know of any commercial firms offering WiMAX to subscribers yet...

Present mobile broadband service is EVDO Rev A on CDMA carriers (Sprint and Verizon) and UMTS/HSDPA on AT&T (GSM carrier). Both have real-world typical download speeds in the 0.5 - 1.5 Mbps range.
