There are several different options here:

1. Through your PC ...(I'm not too familiar with this) but you need an IR port (need to buy) or serial port, it cannot be done through your USB connection (cradle)

2. Through an external modem conected via a serial port (need to buy the cable)

3. Trouth a data transfer cell phone via a cable connecting the too

4. Or through data transfer cell phone via Bluetooth )no cable thus wireless)

5. yu can look at www.Avantgo.com - Here you can Sync certain web pages, pretty cool too.

Let me know if you have any other questions

Of if you want to spend a whole lot of money you can get a bluetooth wireless ethernet access point and a bluetooth memory stick for about $600.

I think it depends on your cell company.  I use this feature regularly with my SprintPCS phone, a cable from http://www.thesupplynet.com, and my Clie NR70V.  SprintPCS has a dedicated web access dial-up for their phones.  I created a Network connection using the instructions on their web site.  I think you will have to contact your cell phone company to see how it works there.  I am in the U.S., so I am pretty sure my method won't work for you.  By the way, Eudora has a free Palm OS email and browser program on their site at http://www.eudora.com

try this site:
http://www.9110.net/internet.shtml#btclick

it is made for the Nokia communicator but nevertheless quite useful for any cell phone connected to a pda...
I used it in Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Switzerland... They are all CSD connections so you might want to try to find out if those providers offer GPRS connections: no stress with download times, you just pay the amount of bytes during your connection (traffic)

Hope that helps...
