Sprint and Novatel Wireless, Inc. are announcing the commercial availability of its first EV-DO Revision A-capable device, the Novatel Wireless S720 Sprint Mobile Broadband Card. Designed for use with compatible laptops and soon to be introduced Linksys Wireless G-Router for Mobile Broadband, the Merlin S720 will allow customers to connect to the Sprint Power Vision Network and remotely access audio, video and data applications at DSL-like speeds. The card operates on the current Sprint Power Vision Network and will support faster average download and upload speeds (450 -850 kbps and 300 – 400 kbps, respectively) of Sprint’s upgraded network when it becomes available. By end of 2006 Sprint plans to roll out EV-DO Revision A.

The Merlin S720 will initially be sold through Sprint indirect and business sales channels and online for a suggested retail price of $249.99.
