The U727 is getting old… the compass 597 really rocks! we do a size comparison of compass 597 vs. u727 (and others) in our video review of the compass 597 at http://www.EVDOinfo.com/compass
as you know, most everyone will get a U727 or Compass 597 so they can provide internet access to a single computer (like laptops)…
but some folks need to share their EVDO with more than one computer, (or perhaps share with their iPhone or iPod Touch, via WiFi)
if that sounds like something you would be interested in, then check out EVDO routers like those from http://www.EVDOinfo.com/cradlepoint
