Hello, I tried searching the boards but couldn't find an exact answer.

I am looking into buying a PDA/pocket pc thing and I want to be able to surf HTML web pages via the pocket Internet Explorer. Can I hook up a PDA to a T68M and use it as a modem or access the HTML Web via T-Mobile USA's GPRS network? I'd like to be able to view any webpage on the go with my pda and t68m. (either via cable or IR or bluetooth)

Its a huge pain in the a$$. I could never get GPRS working with my pocketpc and t-mobile couldn't help me either. So if you get the pocketpc do alot of research first before hand. It will save you some trouble

I have a t68m and a Palm 505 with the Palm bluetooth card. I got an ISP that works specifically for Palm internet access. http://www.ivwnet.com/ and it cost 99 bucks for a year. I then had to use the blazer browser which you can get for free on palmgear.com. It works great, the only downside that it really drains the palm pilot, but it doesn't use T-Zones, and acts as a regular call. I also was able to download AIM for Palm and have SEMail (also found on palmgear.com) so I can access email when I need to.
