No Luck on the Mac side, But Sprints treo650 does not allow that use either. I have both device now and 10 days left to decide one which goes back…this is tough! troy | |

I don’t… I want to use GPRS, but the Mac does not see the Ipaq as a phone or modem. Maybe 3rd part SW could fill this gap. On the sprint side, they say it goes against their contract. One thing to note that is noce about the 6315 on t-mobile is I can be browsing the web and get a call. On Spint it just goes right into V-mail…another strike against the Sprint Treo650. Of course Cingular just anounced the treo650. about 10 days left on my HP trial. I am hopeing for a BT SW fix.. troy | |

When you say “dial ISP” Do you mean we should be able to connect to our phone via bluetooth, and piggy back off the WiFi connection? I guess that might be cool if your laptop doesnt have a WiFi Card. I heard the unofficial ROM update allows the GPRS modem via bluetooth to work finally. I’m going to test it soon. http://lvlolvlo.net/pda/romupdate.htm | |
