I see they have you on commission status now, sir. :smilelol5:

Another souliton is a phone that you can use as a tethered modem. I can use my BlackBerry that way, and it works great. To me it's the best of both worlds for my use.

Curious what kind of speed do you get off the BB and how is it tied in?? Are you actually using dial-up??
