I have a contract E620 from vodafone, which is now effectively deadweight, and a pay-as-you-go E1550 from Three, which fortunately still works. Applying some of the fixes suggested in these threads fixes my E620 problem, but its an imperfect fix, I can't connect every time, and the fix breaks my 1550. I've had some issues with sound and boot freezes since applying the fix too, but i'm not sure if they're connected. Karmic Koala clean install on an IBM T60 Thinkpad.

After several attempts at workaround, I've decided to wait for Ubuntu to fix this problem, and use my pay-as-you-go back for on-road connectivity. This is a disaster. This year to date, I've helped three people migrate to Ubuntu. I won't be recommending it again for quite some time, and I'm looking at other distros myself.
