I found this link on www.freshmeat.net ( Get your mind out of the
gutter it's for open software.) and figured I would share.

It's nice to see another cell phone carrier ( Vodafone ) understand
people don't live in a one or two operating system world. The two
operating systems I speak of are Windows and OS X.
Now I did say other cell phone carrier. Sprint says they support
Linux on their USB Ovation U727 modem.

I hope that Verizon get the idea. I know you can use a cable
connected to your phone via USB but that can be a pain. Another
option is Bluetooth but that is a pain if your carrier charges you
extra to turn on Bluetooth DUN on your phone.
Sorry for the rant..
