Announced at CES 2012 in January, Verizon’s Jetpack MiFi 4620L is finally launching on April 12th, Verizon announced today. The Jetpack MiFi 4620L packs 4G LTE and 3G and will be available for $50 with a two-year contract, after a $50 mail-in-rebate. If you don’t yet have a Verizon LTE enable iPad, this will be a nice way to get Verizon’s blazing fast 4G speeds on all of your devices. 

The Jetpack also features a removable battery, which can be swapped out for a larger 3000mAh unit, providing double the battery life than the one included. It also has a LED status indicator and an interactive OLED display that lets you scroll through menu options, check security settings, view battery life, and display data usage alerts.

Verizon’s LTE data packages start at $50 a month, which gives you 5 GB of data. The hotspot can support up to 10 Wi-Fi devices and can also push out 3G if you’re not in a 4G area.

The Jetpack lands at Verizon retail and online stores April 12th, along with Best Buy stores shortly after.
