    Mobilicity launched Huawei's E1691 data stick today which replaces its last offering: the Option 452. The AWS-packing HSPA E1691's USB port pivots making it a little less prone to being snapped off while plugged in and it includes the typical micoSD slot for your memory card enjoyment. Pricing is fixed at $79.99 Canadian (about $81 USD) with no contract as Mobilicity doesn't play with those. Slap on a $40 a month unlimited plan -- truly unlimited, no caps either soft or otherwise here -- and you're set for some serious surfing. The rub, of course, is that while the offering is great, Mobilicity doesn't cover all of Canada just yet. But still, if you're living within its coverage area it's a brilliant option. Edit: To be clear here, Mobilicity has complete national coverage, but the unlimited markets do not cover the entire country.
