I've searched, but haven't found this exact situation addressed....

I have a Sony Ericsson T616 and a Palm Tungsten T3. I'd like to use the SE to dial up to my ISP and then surf on the Palm via bluetooth. Is this possible? Earthlink hasn't been any help.

If you have GPRS service via your cell network, it is doable. You can go to palm and download the latest phone scripts and install them on your palm. You palm can then discover your phone and use its connection to surf.

Here is the link for the phone updater for the palm. Good luck. I just got a new Motorola v600 and they don't have a script for it yet.

That did the trick, for the most part. Now I can use the GPRS data stream on my Palm.

Does anyone know if the T616 has a modem? If I can find a way to use dial up instead of GPRS, it'd be cheaper.

Thanks -

Mike
