Jon,
Personally I'd go with the classic E220 dongle as it's completely 
supported by Ubuntu, easy to unlock/debrand and upgrade to firmware that 
supports 7.2mbps.

 Hi guys!
 I need to get some info on mobile broadband/internet. My partner is
 currently in hospital and wants to use the Internet so I've been tasked to
 sort her out with the kit she needs. She runs ubuntu 10.04 and is quite
 savvy but anything too complicated would be needed to be done by myself at
 home.
 I'm told that most dongles work, Does anyone have any advice as which to
 get?
 Thanks!
 ~Jon
