    I have a US Sprint EVDO WWAN internal module in exchange for a EUR or JAP spec UMTS/ HSDPA card.

    Same here. I bought a TZ198 which I intend to use in Europe; don't need the Sprint EVDO.

    Aren't the Japanese HSDPA cards all locked to one of the Japanese networks? Anybody try to unlock them? Are they sold separately somewhere?

    If you guys dont find people to swap with, I'd like to buy one at a reasonable price if interested.

    Let me know... I've been looking for a while.

    (for a TZ btw)
