Hi everyone,
I am looking at getting the Motorola RAZR V3 with Cingular within the next month, and I think that the phone will work out great because it has a lot of features that I would like to have including Bluetooth. I would like to get a Treo 650 because I think that it would be easier and more convenient to surf the web on it as opposed to a phone, but I do not see myself using the internet on it as much as I would like because I am in school or working as much as possible. I read the review of the RAZR on here, and it talks about pairing it with an HP PDA, and so I would like to do the same thing and just carry both the RAZR and a PDA in my pockets, but through which method of data access would I have to use to connect to the internet on a PDA? Through a data package with Cingular or by dialing a number through the phone and connecting to a dial-up ISP? I would much rather utilize the data package with Cingular instead of having to place a call, but I can not afford adding the unlimited data package to a voice plan each month, and I have no idea which data plan would work for me without going over. 3MB, 5MB, 10MB? Can someone please help me with this because I have never paired a PDA and cell phone together before, and I have never owned anything that was Bluetooth except for a Bluetooth USB adapter for my iBook but it has nothing else to pair to it. Also, if I went with the LG Slider phone with Sprint that has Bluetooth connectivity, could I pair that with a Bluetooth-enabled PDA? Thanks for your help and time.
P.S. What is a good, inexpensive PDA for me to get that has bluetooth and possibly Wi-Fi? I like Palm over PocketPC, because I hate having to work in a windows environment, but whichever one better fits my needs as far as features and syncs with Mac OS X alright will be okay with me. I have no problem purchasing "The Missing Link" if I need to so that I can sync between the PDA and my macs. Thanks again.
