So we knew about the Gemalto PLS8, and I noted as someone on Verizon that the PLS8 wasn't approved for Verizon but other variants/similar Gemalto chips were. Still no word on an option for those, but the Broadmobi BM818 is new, and I haven't found much about it yet.
Most results on search link back to Purism, so it may not be a widely used chip. It got FCC approval last December, and the documents there say it supports LTE on bands 2, 4, and 13, which would technically make it capable of supporting Verizon? But it isn't on Verizon's approved modules list, so it's likely it couldn't be activated at this time.
I'd be curious what Purism's thoughts were on the chipset choices and what networks they're supposed to work with.
