About ----- prepaid-manager-applet aims to ease the handling of mobile internet connections using GSM mobile prepaid cards on the GNOME Desktop. Such a SIM card can either be in a mobile phone used as a modem, a usb 3g module (usb surf stick) or used by the built in 3G chipset in your laptop/netbook. * It allows you to check the current balance and to top up the credit. * It uses ModemManager to talk to your GSM chipset.
