I found one on Ebay and bought it for pretty cheap. :D It is a made by "TARGUS". Can you do the same things on them as you can do on the internet while connected to a Desktop? Of course with the exception of java games and things like that. I CAN LEAVE MESSAGES ON PM, RIGHT!?!?!?!?

Yes, but you'll be disappointed. It's not as fun as it sounds typing on an LCD screen over a slow connection with a big cord dangling out the top of your device attached to a bulky CF card that makes the entire device top heavy :/

It wont be any slower! I use 56K at home, so i am used to it. As for the cord, i dont really mind, and the modem i got isnt big and bulky. It has a fold in jack, so that it isnt huge like most of them. It will be nice for when i go somewhere where there isnt an internet connection or a computer. :D

Ya, same here. But if I want to surf the internet I just use my laptop. No point fumbling with a small screen when I have a full lap-size computer within arm's reach.

Does anybody know if there is a free interent service that would work with my PocketPC, preferably one that is nation wide? I can use my desktop ISP, but that is Local.
