Hi Chuck, I have setup a router from Dlink which does what you want, I had it running with Telus's EVDO network and it works well.
Here is a similar product from Dlink http://www.dlink.com/products/?model=dir-450 I am sure there are other manufacturers who might have similar offers. Yes, you can use a sim chip from a phone with a data plan on it, but the sim chip needs to go into the pcmcia card, the pcmcia card then slides into the wireless router, you then configure the wireless router to talk to your cellular network via the pcmcia card. You will need to make sure that the pcmcia card or similar is compatible with the router you are planning to use it with.
