- detaro 4y agoFor regular/long use the battery drain is a pain though, so yes, there still are reasons to have it built into a laptop/tablet.
- gsibble 4y agoThat's what I did. Never felt the need for a built in modem, especially considering they are notoriously difficult to get working in Ubuntu.
- dTal 4y agoIf it had the modem, I wouldn't need the smartphone at all. My smartphone is just a sensor suite + hotspot now; the Micro PC form factor and functionality is superior for all actual computing tasks.
