From the HP site "HP un2400 EV-DO/HSPA Mobile Broadband Module: Integrated mobile broadband module with Gobi global mobile Internet technology provides worldwide connection to both CDMA (EVDO) and UMTS (HSPA) networks. (NOTE: Separately purchased mobile network operator service is required. Two 850/900/1800/1900/2100 MHz antennas integrated in the top of the display panel support current and future WWAN technologies)" This is for the HP VZ215PA which is one of the 6730b models. Do you have the product code for the model you're looking at? Just in case there's a difference between models.

Thanks Mauricio & Stu.

Does it still require the sim card inserted in the laptop?

You can use it on telecom but you need to make the manual changes listed here and note that the HP connection manager doesn't work on XT so you need to create a dial up connection

Will also work fine on Vodafones 2100 network but not on 900mhz
