Since this became a discussion of broadband modems - I got an OK from my workplace to buy the Telstra Turbo USB pre-paid modem (currently costs $149) but so far Google, whirlpool and ubuntuforums failed to provide a positive answer about the hardware compatibility to linux (Ubuntu 9.10).
Can anyone here have positive experience with this moddem?
