G'Day Readers.

Can any one tell me how to connect to the internet using my notebook
and a Merlin G201� Wireless PC Card for GSM / GPRS
(http://www.novatelwireless.com/pcproducts/merlinG201.html).

I've got a one-2-one SIM and a btinternet dail-up.

How much does it cost a minute?
Are there any service providers that offer GPRS connection?
Do I need a different SIM for GPRS?
Do I need to tell one-2-one to do anything?
Do I need to know my data number?

I actually bought it for going to Oz, will I be able to use it out
there?
If so which Operator?

Did I just waist �269??

Thanks for your help!!!
