Hey all,
     I know from looking at the "maccellphone" list on Yahoo! groups that
many would love to use a phone/handheld as their modem, and Sprint/Verizon's
3G service, at up to 144k/sec, is better than a 56k modem and can approach
Ricochet speeds.  If there was a bundle or an add-on of support for using
these devices as modems, that would make it compelling software for a lot of
people.  And Sprint's service is unlimited data for as low as $40/month!
I'm excited with mine (Toshiba 2032) but would rather use my laptop than
that small screen and a little keyboard for email on the road.  Not sure how
hard that would be to do (apparently easy with a Sanyo phone, and 10.2.3 has
drivers for "Sprint Vision Modem") but it would be a Killer App.

Thanks,
Joe
