Sign up with GoogleAround April I was surfin the net finding some product information on "my" product and found an interesting site. I found a rather interesting report teazer. Now along with this I had just seen a "latest" release about reverse engineering and whatnot so I knew what the whole bit entitled.
I found a teazer up for purchase one reverse engineered IPW modem....
Found it in document stash again and thought it was a nice read...

IPWireless “Portable DSL” Wireless Broadband Modem
Report Contents:
• Detailed external and internal photos
• Detailed step-by-step disassembly
• Simplified Block Diagram
• Power measurements
• Circuit board & packaging metrics
• Complete parts list & component count
• Manufacturing cost analysis
• Description of most interesting electronic features and packaging concepts
Product Description: Weight: 232.7 grams
The somewhat-misnamed “Portable DSL Modem” from IPWireless represents the client device to a wireless broadband wide-area-network (WWAN). The IPWireless Mobile Broadband system is based on the data-optimized TD-CDMA variation of the worldwide UMTS 3G standard. The modem is in use by Airdata of Germany and Whoosh Wireless of New Zealand as part of their wirelessbroadband offerings. Using the IPWireless modem, the WWAN allows data transmission at claimed speeds of 128kbps and 768kbps depending on service plan. With both providers, the portable modem provides access to the Internet for about the same price as a fixed
connection.
