>Hello everyone
>I'm thinking of buying an Asus Eee PC, but I need to be able
to use it for GPRS connectivity (with O2).

I don't know how it would do on a *nix system but eeeuser.com suggests getting the new
Trust ultra-small BT adapter as it's about the right size for an eee (i.e. tiny
weeny!):

and relatively cheap as well.
Let me know if you have any luck!
Cheers
