Sierra Wireless intros Apex 880 USB HSUPA modem
Sierra Wireless sure doesn't seem to be skimping when it comes to USBHSUPA modems, with it now following up its recently-released 880U and 881Umodels with its new and somewhat improved Apex 880 modem. About thebiggest addition here is an always useful microSD card slot, whichshould let you ditch at least one USB thumb drive from your bag. Themodem itself is also slightly smaller than the previous models,measuring just 85mm x 37.5mm x 15mm. Otherwise, you'll get the samepeak data speeds of 7.2 Mbps on the downlink and 2.0 Mpbs on the uplinkas before, and support for tri-band UMTS and quad-band GSM/ EDGEnetworks to keep you connected at all times. No word on a price justyet, but it'll apparently be available in January. |
