Dell Inks Deal With Cingular For HSDPA Network

Dell can’t get enough of the cellular wireless networks. Shortly after announcing the deal with Verizon, Dell is now cozying up with Cingular to market laptops with HSPDA cards.

HSPDA is like a WiFi internet connection, except the connection signal is carried through the cell phone carrier’s network.

The competition is heating up as to who will provide consumers with wireless laptop Internet access, and charging us accordingly. What ever happened to the Utopian dream of placing wireless routers on every block to give unlimited wireless access to everyone in the city? Oh wait, there’s not money in that business model.
