Hello:
It is now clear to me what I ordered, a sim card reader would not
work. I need a 3G modem. I want one unlocked with a sim card slot
that I can interchange to different network provider sim cards as I
travel in the US and Europe. My guess is that this Zoom model may be
it but ConnectOne does not list it as tested. I also notice a similar
Zoom model for AT&T network. That makes some since in that my
unlocked Nexus One phone is offered as either a t-mobile or a AT&T
type. Here is the data sheet if anyone is interested in the same
approach or has history with Zoom modems please comment.
Thanks
Walter
