As well as its leading performance, Option's GT MAX series features a retractable flip-out antenna making the card convenient for customers to both transport and use. The Option GT Max 3.6 enables users to access email, the Internet and business applications whether they are traveling across town or around the world.
The Option GT Max card allows users to connect to Cingular’s 3G BroadbandConnect or EDGE service in the U.S. or to data networks around the world. Cingular's 3G BroadbandConnect network is available in 145 major metropolitan areas and continues to expand coverage to additional markets in and around major cities. Cingular's 3G BroadbandConnect network provides average downlink speeds of 400 - 700 Kbps with bursts to more than 1Mbps and uplink speeds to 384 Kbps.
