using wireless GPRS PCMCIA cards: how?


Hello.

I don't have an internet connection at home, so I'm thinking about buying a VMC GPRS - GT 1400 PCMCIA card from Vodafone. I mailed them about Linux support, and they told me that there is no available Linux driver support for this card. well, are they wrong, and is it possible that somewhere somebody knows how to use it under Lin? If there is a kind of support, or a driver or manual can be found somewhere, please let me know it. I don't wanna buy it, until I'm not sure about the usability under Linux.
Thanks.

This link looks promising but i suppose it depends on whether the models are the same.
