I have an iPAQ personally w/Bluetooth (BT) built in. So I'd say get a BT CF Card, find a provider with Data and a phone with BT. I personally use the Nokia 6310i (This phone uses GSM technology) this phone is used on Networks such as T-mobile (Formally VoiceStream) or parts Cingular.

Just remember, if you're in the US and you use a digital phone, example, Sprintpcs, mci, at&t or verizon, your data transfer is only at 14.4k and they claim that the 3G should be around 50k. It's slow as hell, so you might be a little annoyed with the speed. You might as well use your wireless web on your phone.

You can buy a 802.11b wireless access point (11MBps) for roughly $100 and a DLink DCF-660W compactflash adapter for the Axim X5 for another $70. The access point will replace your current DSL or Cable modem unit. Several providers offer either DSL or cable modem internet access for around $50/month. There are new, more expensive wireless access points that will give you 22MBps, but bearing in mind that your internet access will be around 1.5MBps, the additional investment may not be justifyable unless you're building your own LAN at home to connect several computers.
