TWC rebadges Sprint Overdrive, offers it as IntelliGo mobile 3G / 4G hotspot

Category: Industry Happeningsadmin @ 9:17 am

And then, there were three. Three ways to snag an Overdrive, that is. Months after Sprint issued the original 3G / 4G mobile hotspot, Clear came along and introduced a rebadged version of the same thing. Now, Time Warner Cable (who is also in cahoots with Sprint and Clear) is following suit by tossing its logo on the all-too-familiar device and christening it the IntelliGo. Functionally, it’s the same as ever — there’s a built-in battery that’ll provide 3G / 4G mobile internet to a smattering (read: five) of nearby devices via WiFi, a microSD slot and USB connectivity. The difference here, though, is that it’ll run you $49.99 on a two-year contract, and the fee will “vary by region.” Speaking of regions, it’ll be available wherever Road Runner Mobile is offered, which means Texas, North Carolina, Hawaii and Kansas City for now.

Sprint’s iPad ‘4G case’ features an Overdrive pocket, oodles of irony

Category: Industry Happeningsadmin @ 3:17 am

Listen Sprint, we get it, you want the whole US drooling over an iDevice hitting the internet at 4G speeds. First you extolled the virtues of WiMAX in an ad featuring the iPhone, and now you’re going so far as to give away a special “4G” iPad case for free with the purchase of an Overdrive from Best Buy — and yes, to be sure, the tote features a special pouch for your new mobile hotspot. No word yet on if placing a 3G iPad in the case creates some singularity from which no nearby object can escape (or get reception, for that matter).

Update: Don’t take the playful tone personally, we actually love the concept. More so, we just think Sprint is being funny here. We’ll have some detailed test results of our time with Overdrive / iPad soon!

[Thanks, John]
