I don't agree with that. I'm always connected. How does Network
Manager know the Roaming is active?
People expected it but don't what it cost. And at the end of the month
they are surprise that they reached the limit or that their speed
became slow. People know how to activate 3G.

If it didn't connect automatically a lot of people would complain
that mobile data isn't working.
We live in a connected world and most people expect to be
connected by default.
It should connect by default but be easily disconnectable however
roaming should
be disabled by default as that may be very expensive.
Data should also be easily to disable in the network indicator.
I haven't tried the version Bill mentions but I expect that is
what I'm thinking about.

I will say I hate this behavior on Android I boot up the phone
and it automatically connects with 3G...
By default Ubuntu should not connect the 3G data

Ok... glad you guys mentioned it... Would have been a big
surprise on my trip
to Spain tomorrow if the device establishes a data
connection without me even
knowing.
Any hint how to disable the autoconnect feature and revert
back to manual
conections?
Thanks
