No.
However, at the beginning of this month, I started using a USB 3G
modem here in the UK, with my 2003 Aluminium G4 Powerbook, and it is
great.
The network is "3" (http://www.three.co.uk/personal/products_services_/mobile_broadband_/index.omp
)
Not elegant, having a USB modem dangling from your laptop, but at
least it gives me a reasonably fast internet connection anywhere
(except ironically, where I am currently working, as it is on the
middle of nowhere).
The plan is £10/month for 1 Gb data. I am a pretty intensive user,
but am still well within that limit.
I wish they had a PC card version, but their argument was that not all
laptops have a PC card slot, but they all have USB. Fair point, I
suppose.
I am not technical enough to know if the Huawei (USB Modem) drivers
exist for other 3G cards.
When I move (2008) to a MacBook Pro, I will look to moving to a 3G
card, if I can fin one that can used.
