[Verizon](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Verizon/) launched two new mobile hotspots at CES, both called Jetpack. We found the [ZTE](http://www.engadget.com/tag/ZTE/) entry -- the Verizon device has all the b*****ng -- and gave it a quick once over. The device itself is quite big for a mobile hotspot, measuring 88mm x 88mm x 18mm, though finish and materials are slick. The menu system is easy to use, buttons responsive, and as seen in the pic above lets you get at settings, SMS messages, and a quick heads up as to how many of the 10 supported clients are currently connected. Power on and off is controlled by a sliding switch, rather than an on off button, which we think is a great idea. Have a gander at the gallery for some more shots.
