So you’ve got an Acer Aspire One netbook with WiFi, Ethernet, and just about anything you could need to connect to the internet – as long as you’re near a LAN or WiFi hotspot.

But adding a 3G HSDPA modem is a bit mor etricky, because you need to not only attach the modem to a mini-PCIe connector but also figure out how to divert power to it and to a SIM card holder. In other words, this is not a hack recommended for beginners.
