    If you're looking for Acers specifically then there is only one currently (that I know of) the AOA150 (also known as the 8.9 inch One that is available through radioshack with a at a discounted price and a cingular program). You will have to do a bit more research to make sure the specific one you are getting will have the modem built in.

    As far as other models. Acer is going to release a new model aka Acer AOD150-2BG aka Z530 which is a redesigned AOD150 (as far as I can tell) with a built in Qualcomm 3G GOBI modem. This should be released this month.

    From other manufacturers - HP MINI has an option for a built in modem from the factory and you can configure it, but its expensive (~$500); look for the WWAM model. I expect Acer to be a bit less. You can identify any 3G device from Asus if the name has 'GO' at the end and supposedly the Samsung NC10 has an option for 3G as well.

    Look to http://3gnetbook.com/ for new news in this market segment.


    Good Luck
