Ok, The Sierra 555 works but now Verizon is telling me that if I want the
"broadband" capability (EVDO), I will have to have the Verizon 5220 which is
an Airprime/Sierra 5220 - for which ther's no driver that I can find - yet.

The Broadband gives you 1.5 mb/s dl speeds within a defined footprint which
is only currently DC and San Diego - still useful as I am in DC area.
