Or if you are at an internet cafe without Wi-Fi (which is the vast majority in the world) and want to put the N800 online.

As it stands now, it is somewhere between difficult to impossible to put your N800 online at an internet cafe if the cafe does not offer WiFi (it requires lugging a USB WiFi emitter and possibly root access on the cafe machine which must be XP SP2 and a driver install and . . . ):

This is the biggest issue between me and buying an N800 machine right now, since I want to use it for traveling in the developing world in lieu of carrying around a laptop. I may only be able to use it at 1 out of 5 internet cafes.

I would love to have a predictable, easy way to use an internet cafe machine as a bandwidth conduit for an N800 without requiring rebooting, admin rights, special configuration, and/or much extra equipment.
