Verizon on Thursday launched the V740 ExpressCard. The Novatel-made adapter links any current notebook PC with an ExpressCard 34 or 54 slot to Verizon’s mobile Internet network, including its recently launched EVDO Revision A service with up to 800Kbps real-world downloads and 400Kbps uploads.

The card works with any recent Windows PC and will also work with MacBook Pros through either a separate driver or those included with Apple’s own WWAN update. Verizon sells the card online today for $180 and will carry it in retail stores on March 30th; 3GStore is already offering pre-orders for the card at $110.
