HSDPA for Macs!

Vodafone officially launches its HSDPA service for laptop users today. The good news for the Mac-lovers amongst us is that the operator plans to offer an HSDPA ExpressCard for the new MacBook models. The cards should be out by Christmas, members of Vodafone's business marketing team say. Could pre-integrated Macs be next?

The operator is also now selling a router that you can use to set up a mini-wireless network any time, any place with HSDPA used for backhaul. Certainly could be useful for those of us based in hotels at conferences with dodgy WiFi access! They'll need to sort out the 1-gigabyte-per-month data limit though.
