Toshibaportegeg450usbmodemphoneNeed a little voice action with your data-centric 3G modem? Toshiba seems to think so and offers it up in their PortegĂ© G450 USB modem. The smallish HSDPA modem plugs right in for speedy mobile surfing, but if you attach a headset to it, you’ve got an itty-bitty GSM phone.It’s tri-band and could probably benefit from some kind of voice dialing software based on the size and layout of the number keys. There’s a 93 x 36 pixel OLED display if you want to push the limits of TXT messaging, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Unwired View says it should be available in March for 199 Euros.
