developer and marketer of wireless broadband communications devices and
applications, today unveiled the Franklin Wireless CGU-628 HSDPA mobile
broadband USB modem, a compact, light-weight device that enables global
connectivity.
The Franklin Wireless CGU-628 offers the flexibility of HSDPA in tri-band
