Cool. Battery-powered? Wonder how long it will last.
Can it tap the power thru the USB?
Regards.
Yes, battery powered. Can be used while charging with USB too. Tested for 2 power cycles. Battery can last around 5 hours.
What are the modem’s dimensions? I feel like it looks pretty small but there isn’t anything for comparison in your picture.
Haha… No official size from Maxis. Will do a comparison with iPad on coming review.
do you get to keep it after contract finish?
Depend… Need to wait for Maxis’ decision.
Dimension-wise is slightly longer than your credit card
Yup, modem is your if you purchase out-right (after contract finish also, the modem is yours!) 🙂
Where can I buy? and what is the cost? should I reg with maxis line?
