I'm reading now about integrating 3G from the cell providers inside the units via hardware/software hack.

This is the best deal I've found on a new unit. I picked up a used Mini 9 on eBay with no bluetooth or camera for about $2 less with shipping and tax and whatnot.

When all I need is access to the web and email, these are the perfect little tool. I installed OSX on mine in less than an hour. It runs like a charm. I even loaded World of Warcraft onto an SD card and it plays quite nicely too.
