If anyone else is looking for a cell phone to use as a modem for the Internet on the Libretto on the go AND does't care which service provider is used, I'd suggest taking a close look at the Motorola Timeport 8767 model. Similar to the usual super-light & compact StarTacs/Timeport models, the 8767 model includes one significant GEEKy feature that I'm in love with - the tri-color organic LED display with super-bright (100 cd brightness!) color characters on a deep black background. Up to 4 hours of talk time on the included battery, and the screen is so Amazingly legible at any distance and angle vs. the boring, usual black on gray LCD displays that if you're like me, you'll start drooling. Anyways, available at Sprint PCS stores for the usual $250-300 ish, box comes with CD software for connection to the PC over the serial port, and with proper serivce, lets you browse the internet from your Libretto on the go anywhere you have cell coverage. -- Of course, disadvantages? Doesn't have numerous programmable melody/ringer options, voice activated dialing, full screen email & web & terminal services, etc. like other cell phones available. ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
