Through 2009, AT&T has certified more than 370 wireless specialty consumer and machine-to-machine devices – such as e-readers, netbooks, digital photo frames, personal navigation devices, and home security monitoring and smart grid devices – for use on its mobile broadband network.

Last year, AT&T teamed with Jasper Wireless to build a proprietary platform to connect and support a variety of emerging consumer electronic and business devices on AT&T’s wireless network.
