I am about to get one of this for preciely the reasons just above. Does anyone actually use E71 as a dongle with Ubuntu?
Also, if I read Sam's post correctly, you can take 3's Internet Max addon at £5/mo for internet access through the handset *and* through the PC (with E71 acting as a modem). Is that correct? I am asking because 3 seem to try to sell handset and PC connectivity as two separate products, even if you use a handset as a dongle. Their sales people can't give me a straight answer.
