Thanks Jimmie. :)

I have an unlimited Internet access via Vision through Sprint. Do you know if Sprint charges using BT DUN?

Thanks.

Jimmie -

Another question. What launcher and theme are you using. I like it very much.

[Jimmie Geddes]

I am using silverscreen, the theme is called OS X Mania. Sprint does not charge you for BT DUN use, you get charged for data. This falls into their unlimited data plan of 15.00 a month. When my dsl was out for a few days I used my Treo 650 just like this, only using my powerbook to surf. I have an unlimited data account.

Hey Jimmie, Thx so much for posting this. I am however still having issues. When I go to connect my TX just sits at "Connecting to Dial-up to ISP" and then eventually cancels.

Any ideas?

Are you using a Sprint Treo? Make sure you put for phone number #777, make sure you've got the right user name and password. Make sure DUN is on. Hope this helps you.

Sadly still not working. I even went as far as to do Hard resets on both devices and try again in case a third party ap was causing issues!

Not sure where I can turn as Sprint will not be much help.

If anyone is having the same issues please step forward so we can figure it out.

out of interest. Why #7777? where does 7777 come from?
yes I have the Sprint Treo 650.

out of interest. Why #7777? where does 7777 come from? why this instead of phone number?

#777 is the "phone number" to the data service.
