I need contacts for a company called Africa Wireless. Apparently they are the distributors for Novatel products in Kenya and I need a MiFi like yesterday. Anyone who knows another product which does the same and available locally please let me know - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MiFi ./Ok3ch

Hi Okech, devices running Palm webOS (now owned by HP) are also based on the Novatel chipset and can do the "MiFi" feature. Right now I'm working on "porting" a Palm Pre Plus to our local networks and once I have the 3G/EVDO working will be looking to use the 'tether' feature... :o) Brian On Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 4:24 PM, Okechukwu <okechukwu@gmail.com> wrote:

Simply get a Nexus One and enjoy the portable hotspot feature as introduced in Android 2.2 Froyo. Works great for me. Regards, Muniu Kariuki
@Kahugu - there are some powerful people at Safcon who are trying to get me one from Huawei, but its taking ages, and I kind of like this one, so thanks @Mblayo - maybe once you succeed you can 'sell' one to me :-) @Munia - I don't need a phone, got so many iDevices so even nexus is not an option - and apple is my religion. Maybe to bring it more into perspective why I need this device - I got an iPad Wi-Fi and I do not ever intent to get the 3G unless this one does an onchancha on me - so with a Mi-Fi device, I will be more on the go, than right now where I only use the iPad at home or at work, or where someone is kind (or silly) enough to have an open hotspot. ./Ok3ch On Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 5:59 PM, Muniu Kariuki <dennis.muniu@gmail.com> wrote:

Okechukwu, This _particular_ Mi-Fi device you've sought, how is it powered? Which one is it? I am just curious. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
Its actually the size of a 'normal' usb modem and charges via usb - the device is here - http://www.novatelwireless.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=... (sorry, not a fun of short url's :-( ) ./Ok3ch On Tue, Aug 31, 2010 at 9:22 AM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote:
