would be nice if it could be done through the serial port (DC coders cable) for some kind of always-on solution..
the modem thing is a pain in the ass.. Its just as easy to plug it into the wall as it is to your PC and use a dial up (faster too)
the broadband adaptor would be nice to use but probably not to the point that I'd pay 3x what a new DC costs to get one..
i could really care less about online play.. I just want to mebbe surf from the couch every once in awhile, download vmus and whatnot..
