The price seems okay from what I've seen on ebay. The Pocket edge is more available so cheaper.

It is a great product but there will be a problem in the future for parts I would guess, there is no official support but great support here at this board :-) so that shouldn't be a problem.

We can enjoy them for now. Something better will probably come along soon and we will all move on to something else, though I plan to use my pocket till it quits :-)

There has been talk about 3G modems working under Dingo and not under Ermine.
There are still components in place to enable 3G under Ermine, but the most workable solution seems to be tethering:

Just one question. Do you have to use a 3G connection? If you are in an office that has WiFi the EE will use that without any problems.

If you must use 3G then there are ways to do so talked about in the threads mentioned by ptsenter. There may be a way of combining a WiFi AP and a 3G dongle but our tests and programs are only in the early stages at the moment.

Well if you need 3g, the main thing to do are either of the links posted by ptsenter above.

Tethering involves your EE and having a rooted smartphone that has 3g. Certain phone providers haven't deactivated their tethering while others charge for it, so you may not need a rooted phone if it works unrooted.

Do you have a smartphone with 3g or 4g?

3g on the edge

http://www.virginmobileusa.com/mobil....html?tab=tab2
either the mifi 2200 or the peeL 3200 will work. the peel 3200 says it's for ipods but that's only for the sleeve functionality it's just a a highly miniaturized wifi to cdma (3g wireless bridge) that's my solution due to the low cost.
500 mb would be unacceptable if i needed to support streaming but my applications on the go are non-multimedia browsing and voip.
I suspect the mifi 2200 would be more suitable for you due larger more economical in those quantities, data blocks. Also the Peel 3200 only supports WEP, which would be a deal breaker for me but the signal is only good for 20 feet (I read the manual). Both are pretty economical solutions unless you need tons of multimedia for your applications.
Luck, mark
