... the PCMCIA cards that allows us to connect, to be precise. Recently providers have started to offer UMTS at reasonable prices around here (500megs at EUR 39, 1000megs at EUR 69 per month), bundled with the Vodafone PCMCIA card at your choice (EUR 39 with a 12 month contract). While that is a good offer for the card, the card itself is .. err... a bright, shiny red. Call me picky but I'd really prefer something a little more unobtrusively. Are there any other cards out there that will allow me connect to a 3G network?
If not then I'm seriously considering to order the Flybook I am going to get in red instead of black or silver.

Don't buy one from Vodafone? You can't really avoid bright red colour schemes with Vodafone as it's their corporate colours Orange do a black/orange card. I've no idea who actually makes these things but there must be unbranded ones out there.

Option make the Vodafone card, not sure about the Orange one - I hav'nt yet come across unbranded cards for sale, I guess once UMTS is more widely established there will be more available
