Acer Aspire 5650 + 3G Review
This is exactly what I need. Imagine wireless connectivity outside of hotspots… (drool…). Yes, I’m talking about the HSDPA-enabled Acer Aspire 5650 notebook we talked about in January - which TrustedReviews managed to get for a full review.
Besides HSDPA-support, this 15.4″ laptop comes with all the basics: Core Duo T2300 (1.66 GHz) processor, up to 2GB RAM, a 100GB hard drive, DVD dual-format writer, and a 128MB GeForce 7600 Go. Of course, you’ll have to fork out around £999 (US$1,856) for it - though you can certainly expect lower prices state-side.
Overall, the 5650 managed to push the right buttons, with TR awarding it a strong overall rating of 8 out of 10, and a solid conclusion: “Thanks to an embedded HSDPA SIM the Acer is the best notebook we’ve tested for mobile connectivity. The spec of the rest of the notebook is good but on the downside its fairly large and heavy, sports a disappointing screen resolution and graphics performance is under par.”

Don’t even bother to buy an ACER, they are utter rubbish when aftersales is concerned.
They broke my laptop by dropping it and sent it back to me?!
After a a repair they blew my machine up and offered another repair and the laptop is new.
Don’t do it-seriously.
