you can use a gta01 with a y-cable and power source (i modified the hub below to provide 5v upstream to eliminate the need for a y cable). I only had to add the modules "option" and "usbserial" to work with the 3g adapter. it's a cdma/evdo adapter from verizon. http://chockerblockablog.blogspot.com/2008/03/neo1973-no-wifi3gbattery-life-no.html it's not too hard to make the neo act as a bluetooth access point to multiple devices and also bt dun server for one more device. I haven't set this up on the neo yet but I did do that with a gumstix. i think it may still be up in the air how to run a usb device and keep the freerunner charging externally. this 3g adapter i'm using draws a lot of power, so it almost certainly won't work when only powered from a freerunner's battery. -- Brad _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
