I've had success with the Sierra Wireless Aircard 860 on a Thinkpad X40. Lately though the card seems to be acting flakey and causing hard lockups. That could be a combination of the firmware which on the Aircard and the carrier which is AT&T. From what I've read, it's recommended to keep the firmware updated to keep in step with the carrier's infrastructure updates. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to upgrade the cards firmware under OpenBSD or Linux.
