Cricket adds Huawei EC1705 broadband modem

Part of Cricket’s new layout involves new broadband plans. They’ve really put a focus on this area lately, and the newest development, as we heard a few weeks ago, is a three-tier system that allows you to pick a plan best for you. You’ll also need a modem, and to that end Cricket has released the Huawei EC1705. It’s a basic modem that allows you to connect to Cricket’s EVDO network. Best of all, if you buy it on the web you get a mail-in rebate that makes it free. You’ll have to shell out the $65 up front, but in a few weeks you’ll receive reimbursement.
