TORONTO, July 26, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ --
NetComm Wireless today announced the launch of its new Smart Hub 4G with TELUS, a leading national telecommunications company in Canada. The new Smart Hub 4G enhances the data and voice benefits of the original Smart Hub with superior 4G speeds, reach and capacity.
