Comment 136 for bug 446146

The Huawei dongles are very common here in Sweden! Even bundled with minipc's and laptops.
This bug is fatal for all those upgrading to 9.10 and looses all internet conectivity.

This bug is also very serious when it comes to people finally giving Ubuntu their first try (lots of media
attention in Sweden regarding Win7 vs Ubuntu 9.10 releases). I imagine they won't be impressed when
their laptops are turned into typewriters.

Also, two of my recently Ubuntu'fied friends has just reinstalled XP because of this! Not good...
I don't even dare to think about how many outthere doing the same as we speak.

High importance is an understatement.
