Three-in-one

Sprint's just-announced Tri-Network Hotspot, made by Sierra Wireless, will give you 4G data on its LTE or Wi-Max networks, depending on what's available where you are. If something goes awry, it'll fall back on 3G (EV-DO). Pricing and availability are still up in the air.

Height

Why is it so big and bulky? The 3,600mAh battery keeps it going longer, and is especially intended for frequent or prolonged use.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
