GlobeSurfer ICON is a self-contained wireless access device, offering the simplest Internet access method, ever. It attaches to any PC through the USB connector and provides instant Internet access at DSL-speed using the latest HSDPA wireless network technology.

GlobeSurfer ICON, combines the convenience of high speed wireless connectivity (up to 1.8 Mbps downlink) with extreme ease of use.

Automatic drivers installation, built-in control applet, and one-button connect, all contribute to maximum user-friendliness.

There is no need for installing SW from discs, connecting DSL wires and filters, setting parameters ... It therefore appeals to the broadest market of PC-owners looking for simple access to Internet and associated services like E-mail, Instant messaging, on-line gaming, or media download.

GlobeSurfer ICON connects to the Internet at data speeds of up to 1.8 Mbps using HSDPA and up to 384 kbps using UMTS. And in areas beyond 3G coverage, GlobeSurfer ICON still enables reliable and secure data connections over EDGE at up to 247 kbps.
