LIVE FROM CES 2013: Chinese vendor Huawei unveiled what it claims is “the world’s smallest datacard,” the UltraStick E3331. It measures 7 mm thin, 67.5 mm long and 25.5 mm wide and supports theoretical peak download speeds of 21 Mb/s.

The UltraStick E3331 is the followup to the E369 and will be launched initially in the Philippines next month, with other markets coming on board later this year.

It’s been a busy week for the ambitious Chinese company. Yesterday Huawei announced its first smartphone powered by Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8 platform, joining HTC, Nokia and Samsung in supporting the platform. On Monday it announced a device with a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, “super retina” LCD display, and 5-inch screen, as well as a “phablet” device.
