See, I have a Samsung N200 phone and I don't think there are cables out
there for such a use. But if anyone knows where I can get some, please let
me know!
Basically I want a modem just to dial up if needed when out with the
Newton.. But the cell phone ability sounded pretty good so I wanted more
details.. I guess I'll go with a USR 33.6 modem, since I don't think I'll
really be able to connect faster than that anyway.. most places I go are
only getting 28.8 or less on dial-up.. anyhooo..
Maybe I can find some cables for my cell phone.. anyone knows of any, please
let me know!
