I haven’t seen any device with Qualcomm’s MDM8200 processor…until today.  Sierra Wireless’ MC8700 data card passed through the FCC today, and internal pics show a Qualcomm MDM8200 under hood.

The MDM8200 is a HSPA+ processor that promises up to 28 Mbps downstream and 11 Mbps upstream.  That’s a lot of wireless bandwidth to play with.

No word where or when the MC8700 will appear, but I’m guessing it should start to show up in laptops soon.
