First, the LED activity light is large enough that I wish the space could have been used for an on-device signal meter, like on the Cricket A600 modem ($0-49.99, 3.5 stars) modem. I have two minor quibbles about the Velocity. Average speeds were in line with the other modems, at 1.33Mbps down and 638Kbps up. The Velocity showed the fastest peak speeds for uploads and came second to the Lightning for downloads, peaking at 3.25Mbps down and 1.06Mbps up. All the devices had pretty similar performance. I compared the USBConnect Velocity to the Sierra AirCard 890 ($149, 3.5 stars) and the AT&T USBConnect Lightning ($99, 3 stars) (by Sierra) in eight rounds of testing in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, New York. It works with AT&T's 3G network, as well as foreign 3G networks. The Velocity is an HSPA 7.2/HSUPA 5.76 device, which is as fast as AT&T's network goes right now.

While it purports to be aGPS, the GPS isn't all that sensitive, so it's best if you're sitting outdoors.

Like other modern USB modems, the Velocity also incorporates GPS, which you access through a Mac or PC control panel downloaded from Option's Web site. There's a MicroSD card slot under an easily-removed cover, which I found a useful way to transfer files on and off my PC. On Macs, inserting the modem auto-installs Option's GlobeTrotter Connect software, which connects easily using a low-profile window. The Velocity works with AT&T's standard connection manager software on Windows. Plugging the modem in automatically starts software installation, on Macs or Windows machines.
