USB Dongles from Franklin Wireless Provide New EV-DO Options

These USB dongles from Franklin Wireless can provide you with access to the Internet, at usable speeds, anywhere you can get a cell phone signal. The CCU 550 and the CDU 550 both allow the user to connect to an EV-DO network. Using these dongles makes it unnecessary to buy a PC card or an EV-DO router.

Even though I personally use a Kyocera KR1 EV-DO router with a PC card, I would gladly switch over to using one of these tiny things. Their tiny size alone makes them infinitely more portable than any of the other options. The dongles are even more convenient than PC cards, in terms of size.

With a single USB port you can maintain a wireless connection to the Internet. Sadly, there is currently no interest being shown by either of the major EV-DO providers in the US to market the device and there are no other publicly known plans to make the products available in the US.
