You could try and build your own with a raspberry pi (which you can install
linux on) and a USB cellular modem, which seems to be possible:

You would need to attach a power source to the whole thing, but it would
still be relatively compact.

Re: Carmen & Camille News: IDGAF Now on iTunes

2012-11-19 Thread Shlomi Fish
Hi all,

replying to myself I wanted to give a small heads' up:

1. I noticed a Yedioth Ahronoth "ממון" headline which said that iTunes is coming
to Israel. Nevertheless, I still doubt it will be usable either on Linux or
without the need to install proprietary software on the host computer, and it's
hard to tell in advance how much of the global iTunes selection will be
available for purchase by Israelis.

2. I tried to purchase a single on http://thepianoguys.com/newstore/ , but
for the life of me, could not understand how to perform a checkout with
PayPal. So I gave up on the idea (I can download a video with the music from
YouTube using a YouTube downloader, but wanted to perform a purchase as
a token of appreciation). 

3. On the bright side I was able to purchase the new EP (titled /Omen/) on
http://store.destroyangels.com/ by using PayPal, though I had to give them my
home address for some reason.

4. I have yet to hear back from Carmen & Camille.

Regards,

Shlomi Fish

"Cellular" sounds like a major drivers issue. Go for a USB-connected
one with a "standard" openwrt router?

Well, in a recent E-mail that I received today, they informed their fans
mailing list of this site:

* http://carmenandcamille.bandcamp.com/

There I was able to purchase the single using PayPal, quickly and easily. I
listened to it now and it's great. Still, I'm left with some bad taste in the
mouth from all this ordeal.

$30 on Amazon and takes openwrt directly:

http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr703n

You do have to provide an external 3G modem on a USB stick but it's easy 
with the built in USB host port


Good luck!
