honestly I don’t agree to have the broadmobi modem.
For a long time it was known that the modem would be the gemalto and also in this topic https://forums.puri.sm/t/ambivalence-of-librem-5-being-made-in-china/4995 ed in questo topic https://forums.puri.sm/t/chosing-the-right-modem-pls8-vs-bm818/6530/7 after several days (June) Nicole Faerber says it will be the Gemalto.
I am a supporter of the gigantic work that society is doing and I could also understand that they ask me for another 50 euros for the modem because they had made a mistake in making the “estimate” (and in the laws of large numbers, if everyone wants the Gemalto, I can understand the economic difficulty of the company) but I would be really disappointed to have a Chinese and non-European modem, precisely because of the security problems involved.
Greetings.
