Hi all,

A client is rolling out a number of laptops for sales staff and would
like to use the modems in their mobiles rather than a separate device.

All the handsets are to be 3G [/UMTS/HSDPA] capable.  My own Sony
Ericsson is only GPRS capable but works fairly well (albeit at 384Kb/s
maximum) via a data cable to my laptop.  Fine for remote control,
browsing and email but obviously VOIP such as Skype and other
latency-sensitive applications are non-starters.

I would like to know if any of you routinely work with the above
scenario using 3G handsets as opposed to USB/PCMCIA modems and what
your experience has been.  My client is going to be using the setup
primarily with a VPN to the office servers.  Please let me know which
model handset you use.

Many thanks.
