7 I also have a couple quad-band GSM cell phones we could tether with a
8 local SIM card. Does anyone know if any of these companies (or
9 others) have good data service:

13 Does anyone have experience with this stuff? Do wireless broadband
14 modems work in Gentoo? Does tethering to cell phones work?
