@beaditya - yes u can use ur gprs enabled cellphone to browse the internet...but u will have to subscribe for the GPRS package tha allows u to browse the net using ur PC...

What u have 2 do is....go to network connection...

click on new connection
choose dial up
then select ur cellphone as the modem...
for the no. to dial specify *99#
leave username and password blank....
connect have fun..

@ paid... - u cac pick any nokia\SE|samsung cellphone that supports GPRS...and then connect...

@frost yes i already have gprs conn.................but what cable shud i use to connect the phone to comp??.............the same dku 5 cable i got from nokia with the phone??


@paid nokia does not have a phone which will be charged when you connect with a pc, i dnt think samsung has one either...............but if are willing to go for a color display phone then 6610 is good but you wont get a data cable free with it..................if you go for 3300 u'll get a data cable free and the phone has a 64 mb mem card and mp3 player in it..............it costs 8800 now in nokia proff..........u'll get it around 7300 in the grey market................6610 has infrared but 3300 does not have it.......but u got a data cable accompnyng it!!

configuring DKU-5 cable to use phone as modem will cause lot of trouble , use either blutooth or IRDA ! that will be simple !

@paid, but whatever, the phone cant stand for more than 1.5 hr in any nokia phones...

@beaditya, hutch gives 500rs, gprs connection, 24X7 connection (only 32kpbs).
airtel provides rs 600 gprs connection.

these connection can be used to acess the WAP sites in mobs also. also mms is free for subscribers in case of hutch.

......if you go for 3300 u'll get a data cable free and the phone has a 64 mb mem card and mp3 player in it..............it costs 8800 now in nokia
8800 will be an expensive investment for me only for Internet. I will rather wait until January next year if Netway/Dataone is launched. Fingers crossed :roll:
