I dunno whether it will work directly connected in to the dm800 iteself, as I doubt the drivers would be setup for it... But it would work if you connected it to a pc, and then networked the 800 to the pc. it wouldn't work too well tho, as the ping on the internet dongles is really poor (usually at least 150ms), so unless you're not wanting to do the taboo things with the dongle, and just wanna download updates/plugins etc, ten it's unlikely to be any use...

As I said though, will prolly get bad pings using mobile broadband, as with mine it fluctuates between 120-350 on average. Tried playing xbox live over it, was a nightmare. Couldn't wait to get home to my normal network connection :p
