AT&T USBConnect Quicksilver is a new HSPA-enabled USB modem launched by AT&T and Option. The device features an award-winning intelligent design which provides a protective cap for the USB connector. It’s also the first USB mobile broadband device to use the Icera Livanto chipset, providing the “latest features in one of the world’s smallest HSPA USB devices” that weighs just 1.2 ounces.
Typically, AT&T LaptopConnect users can expect download speeds between 700 Kbps and 1.7 Mbps, and uplink speeds between 500 Kbps and 1.2 Mbps.
The AT&T Quicksilver is now available today at no cost for customers who choose a two-year DataConnect plan of $60 or more.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
