Option has already done quite a bit of bragging about its various HSUPA and HSDPA offerings, but it looks like the company now has one more cause to pat itself on the back, as its GlobeTrotter Express HSUPA card has netted the all-important FCC approval. According to the company, that makes it the first such card to do so, paving the way for it to be released in the U.S. Apart from the ExpressCard form factor, however, the card is pretty much in line with the company’s HSUPA USB adapter, with it boasting 7.2 Mbps download speeds and upload speeds approaching 2 Mbps, along with support for tri-band UMTS operation and compatibility with quad-band EDGE and GPRS. While there’s nothing to hold it back now, there unfortunately still doesn’t appear to be any word on a price or release date.

Thanks to the oh-so-disclosing FCC, we already knew that Fujitsu’s U810 and T2010 were headed this way, but now the firm is making things official. The 1.56-pound U810 will boast a snazzy LED-backlit display, last up to 5.5-hours on a single charge, will don the “world’s smallest tablet convertible” label, and will be available for you to cuddle next month. The larger T2010 (pictured) weighs in at 3.5-pounds and also manages to pack a LED-backlit screen, but this pen-enabled convertible boasts a whopping 11-hours of battery life on the extended cell, or an impressive 9-hours on the standard iteration. Best of all, folks interested in the latter machine can get their orders in now starting at $1,599, and those eying the cutesy U810 will be coughing up a minimum of $999 when it’s available.

Shortly after Fujitsu’s LifeBook T2010 was outed by the FCC, the firm’s interesting U810 (or U1010 in some locales) has now been uncovered, too. This UMPC / tablet hybrid of sorts reportedly packs an Intel A110 processor, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, a shock-mounted 1.8-inch hard drive, a 5.6-inch WSVGA touchscreen, integrated webcam, keyboard light, fingerprint scanner, a built-in microphone, and best of all, a “Ctrl-Alt-Del” button that actually provides a shortcut to depressing those three famed keys simultaneously. Additionally, you’ll find WiFi / Bluetooth, SD and CF flash card slots, audio in / out, and a single USB 2.0 port. As expected, we’ve no idea when Fujitsu plans on loosing this creature on American soil, but hopefully it won’t be too long now.
