mobile broadband that lets users put their world of content, services and
connectivity into the palm of their hand. Featuring an internal battery
providing over forty hours standby and up to four hours of active use on a
single charge, MiFi enables users to access high-speed Internet from

multiple passengers may need Internet access.

Novatel Wireless has applied its expertise in design and mobile broadband
functionality to ensure MiFi is the easiest to use broadband device ever.
With just one-click individuals can personalize their content and services,
with no need for installing host applications or hardware drivers as part of
the installation process. Users simply need to turn on the unit to connect
to Wi-Fi enabled handsets or devices.

The Ovation MC760 is the world’s smallest EV-DO Rev. A modem. Designed to be
extremely durable and compact, the Ovation MC760 combines a variety of
innovative features into its tiny form factor, including an integrated
microSD™ slot allowing for the seamless storage and transport of up to 16GB
of files, photos or videos on a hot-swappable, removable SD storage card. At
just over two inches long and weighing less than an ounce, the device is
designed to work with any laptop, tablet PC or desktop running Windows
operating systems and equipped with a Type-A USB port. The MC760 features an
internal, advanced dual band diversity antenna, as well as an optional
external antenna for enhanced performance on the fringe areas of networks
