Dell UK has now starting shipping notebooks with a new 3G network data card based on the HSDPA high-speed download technology. One can opt for the card while buying the Latitude D820 notebook computer. Many speculated when will Dell actually start shipping the super 3G card and as they say patience is a virtue.Those who are interested in the D820 can buy the Dell Wireless 5505 Mobile Broadband 3G HSDPA card for an extra £131 which includes a Vodafone SIM and thus one can connect to Vodafone's 3G networks in the UK, France and Germany. But it's surprising that Vodafone hasn't listed the card on their website and many times the company has stated that when Vodafone UK HSDPA service commences, it will only be restricted to the M25 area. But that doesn't mean that the card is useless as on not detecting a HSDPA network, the Dell card connects at 3G data-rates. The card delivers download speeds of up to 1.8Mbps and the upload speed is 384Kbps. One can also buy the card separately for £149.
