A 3G router certainly sounds attractive to keep things simple (cheers, I
didn't know they existed) but it's not actually necessary just to use
Linux. Several of my colleagues use 3G dongles (not sure about cards)
with Linux; I've heard the latest Ubuntus Just Work.

Work, yes. Fast, no.

The bloke at work who has 3G internet says it's 'about 3 times as fast as
dialup'.
