Novatel has announced that its Expedite E362 LTE module is the first embedded LTE module to get approved for use on Verizon?s 4G LTE network which means that it could very well be the card that brings the Motorola Xoom 4G LTE support.
The Expedite E362 has a bunch of interesting features including backwards compatibility with existing 2G and 3G GSM and CDMA networks, support for Windows 7, Vista and XP, as well as support for Android Froyo, Android Gingerbread and Android Honeycomb.
And because it supports Android Honeycomb, there is a very good chance that Novatel?s E362 will be the card that Verizon uses to upgrade current Motorola Xoom owners to 4G LTE.
Besides compatibility with tablets, the modem also functions with notebook and netbooks so we should see it show up with those in the near future as well.
