[maemo-developers] Has maemo-pc-connectivity been substituted by USB Networking applet (in control panel)?

[From: Glauber Ferreira]

Is the same information for N800 valid for N810?

Should these [1] instructions about configuration and test of USB networking
be added/merged to this maemo wiki page? These instructions consider that
the user has installed the meta-package maemo-pc-connectivity on device.
