    PAYG 3 MOBILE BB DONGLE - go onto there website and look for linux drivers. or Vodafone Connect Card Driver for Linux. It works nicely.
    Use your judgement, and above all, be honest with yourself. :)

    Actually, some Huawei software came through via the Live Update function. Can't test it yet, as a don't have a dongle. :)

    Will install XP today anyway.

    As soon as I connected my Netbook to the Internet there were 24 updates to be downloaded and installed. Once installed, there was two others. One which was the Huawei software.

    Not sure.. didn't receive my dongle in time to find out. I'm rather thinking that it was the software for which we were looking all along.

    I have installed Windows XP now . It's up and running nicely. Have yet to test wireless connectivity as I've been connected via ethernet to download updates.

    Will add another GB of RAM at some point.
