If you've an EDGE internet on your phone, you can connect it to ubuntu using your data cable. And you don't need a special pc suite to connect it. Because it has most of the drivers required for all new model cell phones. So plug it in, click on the network tab on ubuntu and select wireless internet. Click add new, if your phone is supported by ubuntu, it'll display your phone name there. Now click next and select your network provider from the list and click ok. Done! Now if everything is fine, ubuntu will display a 'connect to (provider name).' Click it and there you go!
Now you don't have to go for somewhere else to download apps for ubuntu. Because the 'ubuntu software centre' has all you need. Of if you still need to search for ubuntu apps, search for .deb packages. So that you can install them by double clicking it.
Note- sometimes you may have to edit the APN to get connected. If so, call your customer care to get an APN.

I guess there would be no other way to download apps for ubuntu if you have no internet and you can't use your dead slow modem, unless you try to ask someone and download its package or use someone's internet connection to download apps, which should be in .deb or .rpm or .tar.gz. Good luck!

Sorry dear friend you need Internet but saying that, if you have good friends whom has INTERNET then ask them if they can help you. No harm in asking friends. This is the time to find out who is your friend in hour of need.
