Posted by Dennis Sellersmedia has released the GlobeTrotter Express 441, which allows Mac users to establish 3G connections with an ExpressCard on all continents. The sleek modem supports HSPA connections in the 850, 900, 1900 and 2100 MHz bands with up to 7.2 Mbit/s download speeds and up to 5.76 Mbit/s upload speeds.
The antenna of the GT Express 441 is retractable and automatically powered off when retracted, so it can stay in the ExpressCard slot of the MacBook Pro, even when traveling in an air plane.
“This card is the closest thing to a built-in 3G module,” says jan Fuellemann of Nova media. “Whenever you withdraw the antenna, the Internet connection is established. By retracting, the connection will be closed. The supplied GlobeTrotter Connect software for Mac OS X offers a convenient-to-use SMS text message manager besides managing the mobile Internet connections. As usual, GPRS and EDGE connections are supported in all 850, 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz bands.”
GlobeTrotter Express 441 is available now for Euro 189.21 including VAT (approximately US$267). The ExpressCard includes GlobeTrotter Connect software for Mac OS X 10.4.11 and higher, as well as Windows XP and Vista
