Wireless router with USB port/longest battery life?

I'm looking for a router that has a USB port for my 3G internet card (which is USB) so that several cell phones can connect to the router for wifi internet during a trip with no power outlets except the occasional stop where I will be able to recharge once every 8-10 hours or so.

Obviously I'm aware that there probably aren't any small laptops that last for 12 hours on battery life, but if it helps, it won't be used at all except to broadcast the wifi signal.

Of course I'm asking for a router because I would like to enable WPA2 protection on it as well. It would also be preferred if it wasn't a huge 15" laptop or something, something that can fit inside a small computer bag.

NAME

       usb_as - USB audio streaming driver

SYNOPSIS

       sound@unit-address

DESCRIPTION

       The usb_as driver is a USBA (Solaris USB Architecture) compliant client driver that supports the USB Audio Class 1.0 specification.

       The  usb_as  driver processes audio data messages during play and record and sets sample frequency, precision, encoding and other functions
       on request from the USB audio control driver. See usb_ac(7D).

       This driver is plumbed under the USB audio control driver and does not directly interface with the user application.

DIAGNOSTICS

       In addition to being logged, the following messages may appear on the system console. All messages are formatted in the following manner:

       Warning: <device path> (usb_as<instance num>): Error Message...

       where <device path> is the physical path to the device in /devices directory.

       No bandwidth available.

	   There is no bandwidth available for the isochronous pipe. As a result, no data will be transferred during play and record.

       Operating a full/high speed audio device on a high speed port is not supported.

	   The USB software does not currently support full or high speed audio devices connected to an external USB 2.0 hub that is linked  to  a
	   port of a USB 2.0 host controller. Audio devices must be connected directly to a port of a USB 2.0 controller or to any USB 1.1 port.

       Cannot access device. Please reconnect <name>.

	   There was an error in accessing the device during reconnect. Please reconnect the device.

       Device is not identical to the previous one on this port. Please disconnect and reconnect.

	   A  USB  audio  streaming interface was hot-removed while open. A new device was hot-inserted which is not identical to the original USB
	   audio device. Please disconnect the USB device and reconnect the device to the same port.

NOTES

       The USB audio streaming interface will be power managed if the device is idle.
