Linux Untethered
Brian Jepson
writes about successes and failures involving Linux and wireless modems.
"I had a data connection up not long ago with my Merlin G100 for 1 hour and 45 minutes, and experienced 5.2 Kilobytes per second (just over 40kbps) on a sustained download of an 8-megabyte compressed file. I used to go out of my mind when I tried that with a Bluetooth connection on either my Nokia 3650 or Sony Ericsson T68i. But I still swear by Bluetooth for things like sync, remote control, or transferring applications, ring tones, or wallpaper."
