That I know of, there was only one cellular connection (USB) that

least this time last year it didn't seem to be in use)....

I am not familiar with 3G, but I've been using the PC 5220 card with
Verizon for over a year now.  It is EVDO.  That is the card that Mark
Abramowitz worked on.   ...
With regard to speeds, since many times the delays in loading web pages
are caused by overloaded servers, etc, I don't notice much difference in
speed between my 5220 and my DSL line when browsing, but if you're going
to download the latest eCS 2.0 ISO, you will probably still prefer the
DSL.

If I can be of help, it would be my pleasure,

I have a Sprint EVDO card that under XP gets about 1Meg download on the
Web100NDT test sites.  So, where would I look to see what you, Mark, or
Steve did to attempt to get these things working?  I might give it a try
given some pointers as to what they did.  Sure looked like a bunch of
device drivers got installed under XP when I plugged the card in for the
1st time....  and I guess perhaps the Sprint connection manager would have
to run under some flavor of Odin?

Thanks,

What I remember from talking to Steve at Warpstock in 2004 about it was that it was basically a matter of Mark debugging the card to get the information needed to create a USB driver for it.  It was quite awhile ago and Stu can answer this part better than I but I think the card is seen as a network card and doesn't require a connection manager but it could be that I forgot that or it just wasn't mentioned in the conversation.
