i prefer the usb stick, can stick in any computer or on a wireless router (like the one i have at home)
anyone know of any nokia 3g phone (less than rm1k) that can work as a 3g modem for ubuntu ? this article suggest it is a simple process of just pluggin the usb cable between the nokia phone and the ubuntu computer http://gerry.ws/2009/01/1087/nokia-mobile-phone-for-3g-connection-of-your-ubuntu-linux-computer.html is this true ? if it works, then maxis offers 3g package at only rm30 a month. not sure what is the price for celcom or digi since i did not check these.
