Belgian wireless outfit Option has produced a 4G modem that takes up the same space inside a netbook or tablet as the company’s previous 3G-enabled model.

The GTM801 is based around Qualcomm’s universal-standard Gobi MDM9215 and, even better, is already designed to support Windows 8 so we can at least hope that the first or second wave of tablets for Microsoft’s new OS will be able to access 4G natively, for when we need to work Facebook on the go.
