Hi,

I currently own a m500 and plan go wireless internet, but I dont know what kind of phone should i pick up with a wireless IR modem capability (At least I know that I will buy a phone with an IR port...), depents on avalible battery life/Price, could anyone suggest a phone using with my pilot? I'm currently using Prepaid Nokia 7160(This phone have IR port, but i dont know if it has wireless modem capability...)

After I bought a phone, Do I also need Choose a ISP provider(IE:SWBell) or I can just use the wireless company (IE:Cingular/ATT) as my ISP?



Thanks.

PS, I'm in Houston.

the question of what phone to use can probably best be answered by a dealer (not by me at least, i live in The Netherlands, US has a different GSM network) you will need the IR and you will also need a build in data modem.
The porvider is once more you're choice just make sure there is a call in number for mobile phones (you will probably get carrier (or other) errors when using a "normal" dial-in number), if you do not know for sure just call the provider.
It is also possible you will need to download a phome driver as well as an infrared enhancement set provided by palm.
