1.0 out of 5 stars
Item is not liked described and does not come unlocked., May 26, 2010
This review is from: Option ICON 322 Unlocked Wireless 3G Internet Card (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Item is titled as an unloced wireless 3G internet card. However, when installation was attempted it promptly lets you know that it is locked to ATT. This is useless for an overseas carrier. Unfortunately, I found this out while travelling and was not able to return it when I returned due to the short return policy. In addition, item came packed loose in an ATT box. It seemed as if it was a refurbished item due to its lack of packaging and information. I know that this is not technically a review, because I haven't actually been able to use the item. I was hoping this would work for my needs. Maybe I'll sell it in the marketplace so that someone else can give it a try.

It Works! But..., April 21, 2010
This review is from: Option ICON 322 Unlocked Wireless 3G Internet Card (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I'm using this with my IPhone sim card. I installed it as directed, but it wouldn't work. There is a previous version of the software that is available. If you download that version, it works!
I was surfing at decent speeds. This will work great when wi-fi or internet isn't available.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Speedy modem, great for sending SMS and MMS, September 17, 2009
This review is from: Option ICON 322 Unlocked Wireless 3G Internet Card (Wireless Phone Accessory)
First a note related to the one-star review of this modem. Of course, you need service with a mobile operator (AT&T or T-Mobile in the US ... although you'll only get EDGE speeds on T-Mobile as this modem does not support T-Mobile's 3G service on the 1700Mhz band). You need a SIM card with an active service contract from a GSM operator to use this product. If you don't understand this, then this product is definitely not for you.
AT&T sells this product locked to their service as the USBConnect QuickSilver.
The Option ICON 322 is a fast modem for automated sending of SMS and MMS. I use it with the Now SMS/MMS Gateway software product (a.k.a., NowSMS).
It also works great for internet access. It's nice and compact, so it's easy to pack along with your laptop.
