Laptop PC Card Modems

[Michael Stearne]

I just got a HP Omnibook Laptop and want to install Linux on it.  I need
to buy a modem for it and want to make it as painless(read cheap) as
possible.  I was wondering are there issues with PC Card Modems like
there are with Win Modems in Linux.  Are there Win Modems in PC Cards or
are they all real modems?

Thanks,
