Default Skypephone S2 as modem with Windows 7

I'm toying with the idea of buying a new laptop - most of which seem to come
with Windows 7 these days. I would like to be able to use my S2 with it for
occasional internet access when away from home.

ISTR that one or two people have mentioned that there are some issues with
using the S2 under Win 7. Would anyone care to elaborate as to what these
are, and what you have to do to resolve them - if indeed it's possible.

Cheers,

I'm using the S2 under win 7 with no issues. It installs in the same way
as on XP.
