Sure, what is pictured may look like an ordinary USB modem, but it’s not, it’s Sony Ericsson’s MD400G USB modem!

OK, so maybe the MD400G doesn’t have any super powers, but it does feature a microSD/Memory Stick Micro M2 slot with storage capacities up to 8GB. However, in terms of stuff you guys actually care about, it features 7.2Mbps download speeds, the ability to roam globally on 2G/3G and built-in GPS.

Best of all, it’s currently free on Rogers with a 3 year contract.
