Can you buy a 3G PCMCIA card for a laptop in Qatar or can I get a generic adapter and use a QTEL 3G card?

I'm Looking to buy a 3G PCMCIA adapter for a laptop.
Do Qtel or Vodaphone sell them in Qatar or am I able to buy a generic adapter outside Qatar and use a Qtel 3G enabled SIM card?

Hi, I believe Vodafone is due to launch a 3G mobile broadband card in the next couple of months (I am using a Vodafone SIM with the free 300MB of mobile internet to write this with my Nokia E71 tethered).

I think Qtel has a service in the market now, you will need to ask others how good the service is.
