If you haven’t performed a Software Update on your MacBook or MacBook Pro recently, then you don’t know about Apple’s update for Cingular’s HSDPA or Sprints and Verizon’s EV-DO Rev. A. The new WWAN Support Update 1.0 will give you native support for various ExpressCards (plus one USB device) that support either HSDPA, EV-DO Rev. 0, or EV-DO Rev. A. Giving Mac users true plug-and-play for the latest in near broadband access anywhere where there is a cellular signal, Apple will let the PC users worry about drivers and compatibility issues at the time of purchase. :)

Take a look at what ExpressCards and the one USB adapter that are now supported.

•Novatel Merlin XU870 ExpressCard (HSDPA)
