    You could get one of them plug and play modems off the phone companies.. I hear the signal strngth for the wireless is poor tho.

    They are not plug and play. You have to pre-install a driver.

    Only ethernet based services* or a few RNDIS based USB cable modems are plug and play.

    (*Mobile via a Router, Cable Modem, DSL via Modem/Router, Fibre adaptors, Fixed Wireless via Modem etc, ethernet but not USB version of Ripwave)
