As you may recall, SIM card based USB modems were available earlier this year, but this is the first Rev.A USB modem for CDMA, and it boasts some serious possible speeds.
According to Chris, “Okay, so the hardware is here; what’s it like? Well, it’s a little bigger than perhaps first expected – we’ve been spoilt by ever diminishing memory sticks and USB WiFi adaptors, so the added bulk of the U720 comes as a minor surprise. Still, any disappointment there soon wears off once you’re enjoying EVDO, especially in any of the areas supporting high-speed Rev.A!”
I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford
