So after a lot of research, this Aircard seems to be the best bet in terms of units that can be tested with Frontline SMS in the US and work in Africa. There are phones that work in the US (which are listed on the Downloads / Requirements page on Frontline), but most of the phones that are on the approved list and are shown to actually work are mostly used in Europe, Asia, and Africa.
