That’s the USB1000 Global Modem from Verizon Wireless. It looks like your run of the mill dongle, but the hidden gem is that it will work on both CDMA and GSM networks, making it the first world edition modem from VZW. According to the Phone Scoop item, it will run on “800/1900 EVDO Rev. A, quad-band GSM/EDGE and tri-band 850/1900/2100MHz WCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA.” Verizon will also offer a few plans for this one, including one for $130 per month, which includes 5GB of domestic data and 100MB of global roaming. The $220 plan doubles the global roaming amount. This one is available now.
