The IBM ThinkPad Z60T (now sold by Lenovo) is the first ever notebook computer to provide built-in support for an EV-DO cellular broadband network.
For a price of $59.99/month, this versatile laptop allows users to connect to the internet via Verizon’s BroadbandAccess EV-DO network, at speeds of up to 700 kbps. That’s more than 10x the speed of dialup.
Other highlights include a scratch-resistant titanium cover, a 3-in-1-memory card reader, biometric fingerprint security, and a good-sized display, as well as stereo-quality speakers.
This is an excellent portable computing option for the serious business user who desires mobile internet access in 171 US cities, along with some high performance audio and video capability.
