You can get to the Internet using the phone and a GPRS data plan (MEdia Net on Cingular). As stated you need to make sure your cellular service includes a data plan. Then you need to configure for the proper login/password. For GPRS you usually dial *99# to get to your cellular provider's Internet connection. Note that not all cellular providers support CSD connections so you may not be able to connect that way at all. Cheers TC

That's exactly what took me some weeks to figure out. I got lots of great help connecting to Cingular's internet connection but that wasn't what I wanted. I already have a dialup (at my server in the office) and wanted to use that.
