I have a desktop pc which is connected to a router which i use my laptop to connect to the internet. how do i connect with my E2 tungsten? i've tried many things but nothing seems to work. My palm doesn't even pick up any signals. any help would be great. thanks

E2 has bluetooth and IFR but not wireless (802.11b/g).

Load either mRouter or SoftickPPP on your PC. Then you can connect to the PC's internet over BT from the E2.

The easiest way to get it online is to get a mobile phone that supports Bluetooth and configure the E2 to use that to gon online. That will, of course, probably cost you an arm and a leg in mobile data charges.

The only alternative is to get a Bluetooth dongle for your PC (o whatever) and configure Windows with a pass-through connection to allow you to go online that way...of course it would then be easier to simply go online using the PC.

Other than the 'via a mobile phone' route, the E2's not really very well set up for internet access.

or you can buy a PalmOne WIFI card for wireless 802.11 connection. but it is not cheap.
