Story: A 3G data card for your Mac?

The iBook does not have a PCMCIA (aka. PC Card) slot, neither does the 12" PowerBook G4.

Therefore you would only be able to use this card on the 15" and 17" PowerBooks.

Personally, I advise waiting for Vodafone to launch 3G voice services (this Autumn in the UK I believe) and then to use Bluetooth to do 3G data via the phone handset. This approach will almost certainly also avoid any driver hassles (just as using Bluetooth to do GPRS via a mobile phone avoids driver issues with Vodafones older 2G card).

Note: all models of iBook and PowerBook can do Bluetooth (either builtin or USB adaptor).
