SImo'

[tgazvtr]

How much did you buy the lap top for

[XPT_Furio]

I heard you can use just a "personal organiser" and your 'phone to connect to the internet, never seen anyone doin it though....

[Mazza]

dead easy to connect your phone if you have ir on phone and laptop connect then find modem it will find a 9k modem use that

[Simo]

Yeah, it is simple to setup the IR devices... shit slow connection though. <img src= "smileys/depressed.gif">



Simo'

[Mazza]

have you got gprs setup on your phone ..... norm you can get more speed out of them and it dont cost you as much because it only bills u when data is tranfered

[Simo]

Yeah, you can get upto 128kb/s on GPRS.... but I've not activated mine, as it costs £7.50 per megabyte transferred.... which is pretty wank when you consider how quickly you could tear through that.... just browsing a couple of sites.
