More cell phones and internet connectivity ...

[Seth M. Landsman]

	Okay, so I think I found my personal "end-all-be-all" of getting
wireless data to my laptop without a huge amount of money and getting
something that isn't an unpleseant "antique on arrival" product.

	BellAtlantic Mobile is selling the Qualcomm 860 thin phone.  For
an extra 10$ a month it gets wireless internet connectivity.  There is a
serial cable that you can buy which will make the phone look like a modem.

	The question on hand is, is this a real and usable modem?
According to qualcomm, they are selling a palm pilot connection kit.  This
means it isn't a winmodem and probably an honest hays compatible modem.

	Has anyone used this?  Does anyone have a clue if this will get me
able to have both my pilot and my laptop on line on the road?
