With my cellular phone, a Nokia model 7160, I can hook it up to a 
COM port and I can connect and get on the internet with Arachne or 
even with a Windows browser or with any other internet application 
running under Windows, DOS, or linux.

In order for me to do this I must be a subscriber to an extra service
apart from my regular cellular service in order to transmit and 
recieve data.  The extra service costs an additional fee, $6.95 per 
month in my case.  This service works only when I am in an area where
I am receiving a digital signal from the communication towers and in 
a zone which is networked into the special service.  If I am in an 
area where I can receive only an analog signal from the communication 
towers I can use my cellular phone for voice communications, but I 
cannot transmit and receive data.  My cell phone is a digital one 
having an "analog fallback" feature.  There is an indicator on the 
display which tells me whether I am in a digital or anlog zone.  I 
believe that all Ericson cell phones are for digital communications 
only.  You should be able to use it to get on the interenet if your
cell phone provider offers the special data service and you elect to
become a subscriber to the extra service.
