T-Mobile has plans to increase their 3G coverage from 130 cities in the US to 230 by the end of the year. If you recall, until very recently T-Mobile only offered a 2G or EDGE network to their customers. And in a further attempt to keep pace with other telecoms – which by the way are already moving on to 4G – T-Mobile is also rolling out a USB Data Stick from Huawei Technologies (they’re calling it the WebConnect Laptop Stick) that will enable laptop users to connect to their data network and surf from any where in the US, unless of course you live in Los Angeles, where T-Mobile’s coverage is spotty at best.

Everyday I see some weird new USB stick. It will never stop. Soon they will be incorporating USB sticks into everything from prosthetics to handguns. Bring it on I say. Here we have a USB stick that has little Post-It Notes on it. How Practical! Go crazy with them as they are refillable.

IMM, the makers of the fabled USB hipster glasses continue to IMMpress with their new “Gang Signs” USB sticks. “Westside” looks like it fell into the bathtub with Blue Man Group, and the “Eastside” one looks like it just emerged from that scary room in the basement of Amityville Horror. Both will be 2Gb and available in March for $35 each. IMM also has two other signs, “Change” and “Rock Out”, but they are obviously less cool. Say it with me now…America!
