    WWAN on Toughbook

    I've just bought a CF-53 Toughbook which has a Gobi 5000 WWAN card in it. How do I get it to connect to the internet? I get that I will need some sort of SIM or contract but I can't find anywhere online that offers it?

    What size shear bucket?

    Our McHale shear grab is showing it age so I'm thinking about swapping it for a shear bucket. It needs to load square bales and clamp maize and potentially straights into the mixer. Current telehandler is a Manitou 627, so 2.5t lift. What size should I be looking at?
