Novatel V740 Review
As an offering with Verizon wireless service, the Novatel V740 Express Card is a great way for the businessperson on the go to gain quick and easy access to all sorts of important data. The Express Card makes this possible without having to wait for that slow hotel connection. Instead, you can access the Internet immediately. Through the use of the Verizon’s VA Access manager, you can gain access to these vitally important features around the clock and without worry of being locked out of the system or experiencing a power failure.
The V740 Express Card has a dual color LED service indicator that allows you to monitor transfer of inbound and outbound data, so you know what is happening at all times. For those areas where the wireless connection may be a little shaky, there is a built in flip-up antennae that will help keep you connected, especially if you are using the device while in a moving vehicle.
The V740 is compact-sized, lighter than most PC cards, and takes up very little room. The amount of resources needed to run the device is not bad, either. You need 14MB of hard drive space and 32MB of RAM, and of course your choice of a web browser.

Overall
