This is great, but the data service they have is really quite expensive as it is per KB you receive. I had heard that in using a cell phone as a modem you could just use your "minutes" if you call into say an RAS connection at work and then use their Internet access. Probably a lot slower connection, but wow what a savings. I cannot imagine "surfing" this way, but if it were weather, flight, map info your were getting it would be reasonable. I would also possibly like to access other contractors web sites that I can only get to thru the companies firewalls. I was originally thinking of getting the Pocket Pc Phone edition till I found out about the split between "Voice" at ~$40 a month and the "Data" at a minimum of $20 a month. The $20 does not get you very many KBs either. The Rep told me that his company was working on a combined plan, but that it would still add up to about the same cost. I am hoping I can find a way to just use minutes. Anyone tried this?
