Air Card Modem

High Speed Mobile Data Driving Uptake of Pc Cards
In the early days of mobile computing, only the most hardcore road-warriors in niche markets equipped their laptops with wireless connections, because transmission speeds were so painfully slow using the cellular technologies of the time.
As speeds increase with the rollout of 3G services and air-interfaces evolve from EV-DO and W-CDMA to EV-DO Rev A and HSDPA, wireless connectivity becomes progressively more useful to a growing pool of laptop users.
The original wireless modems for laptops were add-ons in the shape of PC cards, and indeed according to Philip Solis, senior analyst at ABI Research, “there are still several good years left in the PC card market.” Now, progressively more wireless modems are being built right into the computer, and it is there that the real long-term opportunity lies. That will produce a change in the dynamics of the market.
ABI Research estimates that shipments of embedded modems will equal those of PC cards by 2009.
“With PC cards,” says Solis, “mobile operators sell the cards and an associated mobile phone service. Changing service provider or upgrading to a better modem is a simple matter of purchasing a new and different card. Embedded modems, however, must be chosen at the time the laptop is purchased - before the service is activated.”
The consequence is that mobile operators “incentivize” laptop vendors with a “bounty” for every activation. Therefore, Solis advises, “modem manufacturers should take care to cultivate strong relationships with carriers and operators. Among the leading laptop modem vendors - Option NV, Novatel Wireless, Sierra Wireless and SonyEricsson - Option has been most proactive in pursuing such relationships, and it has produced results: we found Option to be the number one cellular modem vendor at the end of 2005.”
The ABI Research study, “Mobile Broadband to the Laptop” tracks and forecasts the market for cellular PC cards and internal modems in laptops by air interface from 2003 to 2011. For comparison, it includes forecasts and attach rates for PC cards and internal solutions for WiBro, WiMAX, Wi-Fi and cellular solutions, as well as vendor market share for cellular PC cards from 2003 to 2005. The study forms part of two subscription ABI Research services, the Mobile Broadband Research Service and the Mobile Devices Research Service.

Apple Modem $100.37 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Apple USB Modem is a combined 56 kbit/s data modem and 14.4 kbit/s fax external USB modem introduced by Apple Inc. after the internal 56k modem was dropped on the October 12, 2005 iMac G5 revision. Apple introduced its first true modems in 1984, the Apple Modem 300 1200 modems (V21/V22). Prior to that they offered a third party Applebadged comparatively lowtech acoustic coupler. Those were followed by the industry standard 2400/data and combined 9600/fax (V29) Apple Fax Modem in 1987. Apple introduced the internal 2400 data/fax modem card for its Macintosh Portable in 1989 as well as released its last external desktop Apple Data Modem 2400. Only standard internal modems were offered during the 1990s through 2005, with the notable exception of Apples foray into GeoPort passive telephony modems which relied heavily upon the computers software and processing power rather than dedicated hardware (like Apples proprietary internal Express Modem). The Apple USB Modem is Apples first true external modem since the Apple Data Modem 2400 was discontinued in 1992. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
