This gets interesting when you combine wifi and 3G/HSPA into a single
hotspot, using the 3G for an uplink to the net or similar... quick,
easily deployed hotspots...
For those interested in mucking with that sort of stuff, openwrt does
have modules for the huawei e220 as well as the e169 (i think).
