EPods and Cell Phone Modem?
EPods and Cell Phone Modem

Has anyone determined how to use the ePods to dial out to an ISP using a cell phone? I assume I can use a cable from the cell phone to the ePods serial port and set up a DUN in Windows CE?

Also, has anyone found a car adaptor to plug into the cig lighter for the ePods?

I've got a Belkin cable that attaches from the serial to my StarTac Vader. I use the SprintPCS Quick Net Connect to log directly into the digital network. Its slow, but it works. Watch out - if you don't have the wireless web option ($10 a month) it can be expensive.

Thanks Chicago,

I have a Sprint plan as well with an older Qualcomm 2700 phone. It's not a browser-enabled phone, but I can pick up for $15 the cable to connect to the ePods serial port and either use the Sprint ISP or my own ISP on the ePods. I'm not familiar with the ePods operating system - can I make a Dial up network entry similar to Win95?
BTW, the Sprint Wireless web option, I believe, is now $5 a month.
