A USB modem. The modem will be shipped over a six-month period beginning in April 2008.

The Franklin Wireless dual-band CDU-680 USB modem, which operates in both the 800 MHz and 1900 MHz bands, is available through Iusacell distributors and is the first EV-DO Rev. A modem to incorporate flash memory, a GPS receiver and a unique swiveling USB connector.
