So I do not own a N810 (yet) but I am looking into getting one. The fact that this is not a Phone is really confusing to me, and only a tablet PC.
So I want to fix this as I've done some modding in my past (psp, xbox, and hardware modding to laptops/computers) I think I can whip up some method to get a USB Sprint mobile card to work with the N810.
My Idea:
Cords needed to attach the card:

Ovation U727 Known linux support (Sprint)

***If I can find some hacked linux drivers I might use***

I have looked at the new WiMax version and noticed that it has a "bump" or raised back. I know a local plastic molding company (uses a plastic wrap to make a mold) to make it all fit on the back of the phone.
Hopefully it will come out ok. Does anyone see any problems with this?
Costs will be:
Phone
$497 Best buy -12% off rewards zone =440+tax
USB Card with 2 year Sprint Contract (new or upgrade) + cables
Free (-$50) or at most ($50)
Cables $10
Per Month
$60 -%10 Company discount =$54+Tax
Overall cost of phone over 2 years with agreement ($1940ish)
