Verizon Wireless today announced the availability of the USB727 Modem. Developed by Novatel Wireless, the USB727 features an integrated microSD slot, allowing for the seamless storage and transport of up to 4 GB of files, photos or videos.

The USB727 is designed to work with any computing device equipped with a Type A USB port - including most desktops, notebooks, and tablet PCs - and provides on-the-go access to Verizon Wireless' national high-speed wireless broadband network. With out-of-box support for most operating systems, including Windows (Vista, XP, 2000), Mac and Linux, the USB727 enables Verizon Wireless customers to stay connected to online resources.

Designed to be extremely durable and fit comfortably in any pocket, the USB727 combines a variety of innovative features into its tiny form factor, including an integrated dual-band diversity antennae system with flip-up antennae to maximize data speed performance and provide a strong network signal reception. VZAccess Manager Software is included to simplify set-up and navigation through the USB727’s features.

The USB727 is available at $149.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate and new two-year agreement. Customers can get BroadbandAccess service for Internet browsing, e-mail and intranet access for $59.99 monthly access with a new one- or two-year customer agreement.
