Well, if you get Blackberry service, through T-Mobile USA, with international e-mail data roaming, and Blackberry data, for a total of $48 per month, or $38 if you have a voice plan with the account, you can use the SIM in any GSM GPRS/EDGE modem, and roam the world, with GPRS or EDGE, for free .... just make sure your acocunt is , in addiiton to Blackberry data, is provisioned with wap.voicestream.com.

That all being said, even EDGE on a laptop is pretty lethargic.

I have a SIM from T-Mobile exclusively for my Sony laptop. which is its built in GSM EDGE modem. Have never paid a penny additional for a pretty fair amount of data I've used in Asia, Europe, Middle East, etc ...
