Interesting thread and thank you for the above link. I will do some
studying. The cell phone operators here in Colombia (GSM networks) all
sell those things, but they natively work only on Windows and MACs.
When our ADSL goes down, it would be nice to have one of those USB
sticks, for HSDPA connectivity, as a backup.
