AT&T and Sierra Wireless released the AT&T (NYSE: T) USBConnect Mercury, the newest and smallest HSPA-capable LaptopConnect device to date.
Designed and manufactured by Sierra Wireless, the AT&T USBConnect Mercury is a convenient, easy-to-use USB device that provides a high speed connection to the AT&T wireless network whenever it’s needed. The device provides plug-and-play installation by including a preloaded version of AT&T Communication Manager software for Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) Windows Vista, XP and 2000 notebooks and Sierra’s Watcher software for Mac notebooks (versions 10.4.11 or later) so that new customers can get up and running quickly and easily.
The AT&T USBConnect Mercury integrates a microSD slot that provides customers with a portable storage solution, eliminating the need for additional storage hardware. It’s available at no cost though a two-year DataConnect plan of $60 or more is required.
