Have you looked with envy at Audi’s new models being released with in-car wi-fi? Well, now you can bring your Volvo 850 GLT one step closer to a modern day luxury ride. AT&T has teamed up with ZTE to produce an in-car wi-fi hotspot that can be retrofitted to any car with an OBD II sensor. The device is powered through the OBD II port, keeping your cigarette-lighter real estate free for lighting cigarettes or charging phones. The plan for the Mobley can be lumped into your existing AT&T plan with options for 1GB or 3GB of data. Available September 11.
