Ive just recently discovered the wonders of wireless communications (internet wirelessly)

I have activated my GPRS adn MMS on my phone, my query is on how to connect my pda which has its own wap and web browser to connect to the GPRS service of smart, i think if i get this working i will be in bliss because of the bluetooth features of both my phone and my pda. please help me set it up. also how do i set up the apn? and what i it for? is there a comprehensive website that i can browse regarding these queries?

Tnx in advance

1. text "set internet et68i" to 211 then save settings

2. text "internet on" to 333

take a look at the list of your data accounts under the Connect\Data Comm menu. when you select the Smart Internet account, you will see the account's CID no, e.g., CID=3.

When your phone and PDA are connected via BT and you start up dial-up networking or whatever equivalent, dial *99***3#, the "3" being the CID number.

I GUESS YOU HAVE TO CONNECT TO THE NETWORK SOMEHOW...

How much do i have to pay for this stuff?

P0.25/KB SENT AND RECEIVED. IF YOU'RE ON ADDICT, THEN IT'S PART OF YOUR CONSUMABLE ALLOTMENT

and lastly hwo do i access my email from hotmail using only my phone?

YOU WOULD HAVE TO FIND HOTMAIL'S WAP ADDRESS THEN ENTER IT IN YOUR WAP BROWSER AND BOOKMARK IT.
