    I'm seeing either Sony's GC83 or Sierra's AirCard 775. But i notice Sony's much much cheaper compare to 775 even though we both pretty much have the same thing.

    Anyone have any clue or know which is better?

    I used the Sierra 775 for a little over a year, it worked well for me. The Sony card is EDGE compatible though, meaning on Cingular it will get MUCH better speeds. Which network are you going to use?

    I plan to use it in Hong Kong. I think they use GPRS there not EDGE yet. Where can i buy it cheap? Any advise?
