* Here are some pictures of an Ericsson W35. Yes the quality of the pictures may be not so good. The web cam does some megapixels and hd resolution … but it’s a bit rough in the shop environment to get good lighting, and reflections are a bear!
But… it’s a real Ericsson W35 – not marketing photos … these photos likely show more than any marketing photos would.
Stand By Mode – by pressing the bottom front button. Turns off the Internet, but maintains voice telephone capability. Make sure the kids do their homework, or the workers do their work, or the crew of the boat is working instead of surfing the Internet. Light changes from blue to red when standby mode is engaged. Press it again to go back to normal.
Ooops! The Ericsson W25 – the W35′s older sibling … and still quite a formidable unit, minus the HSUPA (higher speed upload.)
* Anyway – the Ericsson W35, not much bigger than a DVD or Blu-Ray box … a little bit taller … a little bit thicker. It fits in your hand at least to maneuver it around. It comes with a stand – should you want to have it on display in operation somewhere. It can also be mounted on a wall or bulkhead. It’s light enough to be attached even with Super Velcro or 3M Dual Lock. It does 3G + (plus) (See web page screen shots in my previous post below) HSPA – High Speed Packet Access (including both HSUPA and HSDPA – look those up in Wikipedia), as well as Voice Cellular Telephone – ATA adapted to RJ11 for analog phones or PBX systems. You will notice an MCX antenna jack in these pictures – that could take a mobile or marine antenna in a motor vehicle or sailing / motor yacht, or even on a home or other building structure. It can even take directional Yagi “beam” antennas. * You can see the signal in real time in the web pages interface for aiming or testing an external antenna if necessary.
It’s worldwide compatible … so as long as you can power the thing, you can use it in your travels worldwide. It is backward compatible GSM – GPRS and Edge – it is Quad Band + WCDMA. It is unlocked for any cellular carrier (chances are your cell phone or smart phone is NOT! It’s locked to one carrier.) for anywhere in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia, … Anywhere there is GSM, UMTS, HSPA (WCDMA) it will work.
Any questions?
