If you haven’t heard about the Novatel Mifi then let me quickly explain what it is. Its a palm-sized gadget that you put a 3G-capable SIM card in. You press a button; wait a short while and voila! An instant Wifi hotspot for up to 5 devices at broadband speeds. It really is as simple as that. Use it in hotels, cars, the park and the coffee shop to give yourself instant, mobile internet access.
For more detailed information, a review and a video, check out the round-up we published over at UMPCPortal earlier this year.
If this sounds like something that you’re interested in, we’ve got an easy competition for you. You can win a Mifi 2352 (that’s the European-focused 3G version) that has been donated by our good friends at Mobilx.

I’ll start and say that I would like a black one.
If they would produce a red one, that would be nicer but I won’t be pickey.
Good Luck to everyone else!
Oh, perfect, the white one looks superb, i want this one!
If I have to choose than I would say Black one.
But honestly I would love to have one in any color.
black is what i would like if i win
The color is not so important for a gadget that will be always in the backpack, but black is what i would like if i win.
I ‘ll take the black one, thank you!
Has to be black….

Definitely the black one, way more classy!
Thanks!

Black is beautiful
BLACK never goes out of fashion! and that would be my choice! Thanks!
Black ofcause, to bad its glossy though.. Nothing should be glossy!
I think I’ll have to go with black!
Definetly black – although I have to say, if there was a brushed aluminium one I’d probably prefer that one, Alas – as there is no aluminium one I stand by my previous statement:: has to be black!
Oh I would LOVE a black one, it would save me from having to paint it black like the S7..
Thank you!
White is way more awesome than black. Lovin carrypad!
Black is whack! Not to mention a fingerprint magnet on a glossy device like that. I’ll take a white one, please.
Black one please
My choice of color is black. I think black is majestic.
Vinay

I’d like the one! What a way to end the year if i won this!
Question: What colour Mifi would you like to win?
Answer: A black one will be nice.
Not too sure what you mean by “You need to subscribe to the comments.” I assume I need to check the “Notify me of followup comments via e-mail” checkbox below, rather than subscribe to RSS Feed of Carrypad.com.
Thank you for the chance to win this giveaway.
I prefer the white one, thks.
the back one of course…. only toy electronics are white… “:-)
I was almost buying one.
Thanks Steve for teh oportunity.
So, as Yoda would say: black will it be.

I was going to build an umts router in January but winning a black mifi would certainly be better! That mobility factor is quite nice because my Notebook has no umts build in and all these usb umts sticks almost halve its battery life.
A white unit would be nice, so I can see it in the car.

Wow I really wish I could also win MiFi 2352 3G Hotspot with Carrypad and Mobilx.

Really great to have that cool gadget. Everyones mind is to have new things.
Microsoft Kinect is really cool and fun. And no I was not paid to say that. It even moves to get a better look at you. Kinda creepy.
