Anyone know if the UMTS Vodafone Connect Card (ExpressCard) or USB key works with Leopard?

I use vodafone's UMTS USB modem (the Huawei). On upgrading to Leopard the modem wouldn't work at all (no datacard detected). A leopard-compatible version of Vodafone's Mobile Connect software has been posted to their German site. The UK and other sites still only have the older (incompatible) version.

Can't remember where I originally downloaded it from, but here's a link to vodafone.de - Vodafon UMTS | Dashboard-Software für Apple-Notebooks - Hilfe & Support / Technischer Support / Mobile Connect Card UMTS / Dashboard-Software (Mac) vodafone.de

No mention is made of leopard, but the version no. and modification dates match mine. Quite why UK vodafone can't get their act together is a mystery

Good luck!

Thank you. I'll give it a try.
