Those of you who prefer to have their USB ports free like all the time (or have their USB ports reserved for some other things) may opt for ExpressCard or PCMCIA-based 3G modems. However, since all the latest 3G modems are either USB or ExpressCard based, users with older laptops that only support PCMCIA cards are left out. Novatel knows that, hence their latest EX720 EV-DO ExpressCard comes with PCMCIA adapter. Apparently this adapter alone would run you $50, so it’s a good deal, especially when you consider the Sprint Novatel EX720 EV-DO ExpressCard modem costs $70 after rebate.
We at IntoMobile keep prefering USB modems. It’s way more convenient…

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.
