    Have just got my new AA1 110. Very happy so far. General question about wifi connections. So far I can connect to my home wifi network and connection manager shows unsecured networks in the area. I will use my AA1 principally travelling at free hotspots etc. If I understand, for free hotspots no modem is necessary. If I want mobile broadband coverage everywhere I assume I need a usb modem and a subscription. Which usb modems work best on AA1 110 with linpus linux? I've seen the Huawei E220 is mentioned by some posters but it is pretty expensive. Any cheaper but reliable alternatives ( that don't need too much tweaking)?
