I use when I go on hollydays and do not have Inet cable connection
available.
It works quite well for me, __but__ I've experienced that if I put the
iBook to sleep having the modem modules loaded, I get kernel oops when
it wakes up; and it usually ends with a system hang up.
As a workarround, I simply rmmod the 3 modules after finishing the
connection with ppp and everything works very well.
Btw, my iBook is quite new, 900 MHz/12" (bought in may).
