Netbook 3G

During the exit of the netbook, EeePC first 4G, the mobility in displacement passed by Wifi (and possibly the key 3G SFR for those who had bought it in the frame offer with fixed rate 3G SFR). For the others whom had other keys 3G as popular Icon 225 distibuée by Orange, they had the right in galley of installation of package 3G under Linux. Then netbooks under Windows arrived who resolved this problem at the same time since all keys were supported by Windows. But once it works, they are happy but they find fast that it becomes restrictive of credit the key USB 3G has connect, wait that it is admitted by Windows to be able finally to be connected. He stayed therefore has hope for netbooks these arrive with the integrated 3G but arrived in count-drop (in France: PhoneHouse 10160 then Advent 4213 then Asus EeePC 901GO to SFR then SAMSUNG NC10 3G to SFR and Bouygues then Asus 1008HA GO to SFR then Asus 1005PE GO to Orange and finally Samsung N150 3G to SFR). Except first 2 models, all were simlockés on the operator. Besides, during that they pay a fixed rate 3G, this one is usable only on the single peripheral at the same time (at least without complex manipulation). Puis sont arrivés les netbooks sous Windows qui ont par la même occasion résolu ce problème puisque toutes les clés étaient supportées par Windows. Mais une fois que cela fonctionne, on est content mais on trouve rapidement que cela devient contraignant d’avoir a brancher la clé USB 3G, attendre qu’elle soit reconnue par Windows pour enfin pouvoir se connecter. Il restait donc a espérer des netbooks arrivent avec la 3G intégrée mais ceux-ci arrivèrent au compte-goutte (en France : PhoneHouse 10160 puis Advent 4213 puis Asus EeePC 901GO chez SFR puis Samsung NC10 3G chez SFR et Bouygues puis Asus 1008HA GO chez SFR puis Asus 1005PE GO chez Orange et enfin Samsung N150 3G chez SFR). Hormis les 2 premiers modèles, tous étaient simlockés sur l’opérateur. De plus, lors qu’on paye un forfait 3G, celui-ci n’est utilisable que sur un seul périphérique à la fois (du moins sans manipulation complexe).

Since already more d ’on 1 year, the modem 3G / navigator Wifi makes  its appearance discreetly .
