[ILUG] Huawei E870 with O2 and Linux drivers

[Declan McGrath]

Does anyone know if it's possible to get the Huawei E870 running on Linux
(I've trying it with Ubuntu 7.10) via the Express card slot? I managed to
get the E220 running nicely as a USB modem over the O2 network but I'm not
sure how to make the Linux kernel see the E870 as it's an Express card.
There's not much on the ol' Interweb on E870 under Linux, prob cause this
is a new model :( The E220 was quite handy to get info on.

Also can anyone recommend one of O2, Three or Vodafone as standing out
from the rest as a better mobile internet provider. Will be using it
mainly in Dublin city centre but also in Tipp and Limerick the odd wkend.

All the best,
Dec
