The lack of 3G support is acceptable for a desktop, but it is absolutely
necessary for a netobook a 3G connection working.

In many parts of Europe (no wimax, no free public Wi-Fi access point) ,
the only way to be connected outside the home are the 3g dongles.

Without a working connection a netbook is just a damn piece of junk.


Anyway, I've read this post on betavine

Since the 3G handsets are *not* supported in Moblin, it would be
possible to include vodfone-mobile-connect in the Moblin repo's?

The project is open-source and is already packed for Fedora, but it can
not install it because in Moblin missing some dependencies.

    * wvdial
    * redhat-lsb
    * python-serial
    * python-notify
    * python-sqlite2
    * python-pytz
    * python-dbus
    * python-cairo
    * pythoncrypto
    * python-gtk
    * python-gnome
