Surf internet and check email with bluetooth?

[cliekid]

I just got a bluetooth memory stick for my palm and I love it. I am able to sync my nx70v via bluetooth with my computer and I can play games via bluetooth with my brother on his T3. Is there a application that will allow me to sync my email(yahoo mail) if my computer is online via bluetooth to my clie? I hope there is something like that. Also, is there an application where I can surf the net on my nx via bluetooth if my computer is connected to the internet. Thanks in advance.

ClieMail can sync with outlook express, and Eudora. I don't know how you sync with webmails...you would think you need client that syncs with the server directly not your computer because your computer Doesn't keep a good record of web-based email. I don't think, I'm not that fluent in webmails...

For Surfing, there are a number of progs. WebPro, WebtoGO, AvantGo, Netfront...

cliekb is right, if you want to sync with webmail, you'd need to write a screen scraper to download the index page then pull the URLs for each message and download those too. Then you'd need to have a filter that can get the email bit out of the whole web page and show you just that - hard.

I'd just use NetFront or something and view the email at yahoo itself.

For sending mail, it's easier, you can change your 'from' address in the mail app on your clie to appear to come from yahoo, and then just send via your ISP's smtp server.

I dont have any bluetooth devices, but this might work. Try use yahoopop program. Install the program into your computer, so your email program (OE,Eudora) can download your yahoo email. From there you can synch your clie with your PC.

I wanted to use my Mac internet connection to surf the net on my palm and this is what I found. I dont have a bluetooth adapter yet to test it, also I was unable to find the web URL again, but here is the text that might help you find it,
Due to popular demand, I have written a few AppleScripts for enabling Internet Sharing via Bluetooth. There are a total of three scripts. The first will share your internet connection from your Airport, the second will share your connection from your Ethernet, and the third script will deactivate internet sharing...
With these scripts, you no longer have to download IPNetShareX, although I still highly recommend it for other uses, since it gives you a lot more options than Apple's built-in Internet Sharing. Make sure you uncheck
Bluetooth in the HotSync Connection Settings or disable HotSync completely before running the scripts.
You will be prompted for your administrator password upon running each script. If you would like to enable internet sharing automatically at startup, simply add the appropriate script to your Login Items, but you will still
be required to authenticate when the script loads.
These scripts are provided as is. I will accept no responsibility or liability if they destroy your system in any way, although no preference or configuration files are modified, so restarting your machine should restore everything to normal. The scripts can be opened in Script Editor to modify to your liking or if you would like to examine the commands issued before running them.
As far as I'm aware, we are the first site to have written and publicly posted AppleScripts that provide this kind of functionality. I am making them available, because I believe that there are many users out there who would
benefit from these scripts. If you find the scripts useful and/or would like to continue to see unique content like this at TechnoHappyMeal, please consider making a donation. Thanks.
Download the scripts here. They require Mac OS X and a USB Bluetooth Adapter unless you are one of the lucky people out there using the newest Macs with built-in Bluetooth.
