Default Online poker on a 3G broadband USB Modem (UK)

I'm wondering if anybody has any experience of using the 3G broadband USB Modem for playing online poker in the UK.

As far as I can tell it should work fine with any PC so long as I'm in a Vodafone 3G area and it seems like the ideal mobile Internet backup device (only £25 per month).

Has anybody used this to play online poker and if so did it work ok? Can you see any pitfalls with my idea? I intend to use it purely as a backup connection when away from home (or at home after my one of my other Internet connections expire), possibly on other peoples PCs.

Bump.

Has anybody here used one of these and if so how suitable are they for poker? (ie: will I get disconnected frequently, etc).

It seems that the contract has got way less stingy than it was back in March when I made the OP and I'm seriously considering getting one of these, but if it don't work for poker then it will just be an expensive paperweight...

I haven't used it myself but I know a high stakes player that uses it all the time with his laptop with no problems [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Bump this if you get it, I was thinking about getting one myself.
