However, having the computer functionality does excite me but only if I can surf anywhere through 3G. I wonder if I could get my Verizon 3G USB modem to work on this? By the way, can you install any applications on it?
I told Doug the exact same thing.

Yes, you can install Android software. For example, the Android version of Docs2Go works on the Edge.

As for the modem, all I know is that they are planning to support a version with 3G. Does the USB Modem require a driver? IF yes, then is there an Android version available?
