Hello Kathy: The keys to using your cell phone with the BrailleNote family are A> its ability to act like a modem (Which most modern cells can do), B> the ability to find and connect a serial cable to the phone and C> to be able to find a serial cable that will work between the BrailleNote and your particular cell phone.
I found mine by plugging my cell phone's manufacturer and model number into Google and then looking for a site with accessories for it. I had to call several 800 numbers to find the right company. There are lots of USB cables out there, but you'll need a 9 pin serial cable with whatever connector exists on the phone. After that, it's just a matter of setting up the correct settings in the Directory Of Services on the BrailleNote. I used this type of setup to travel across the country a couple of years ago and was very pleased with it. It's much easier than trying to use infra red while in a moving car. If your not using GPRS, then you'll want to make sure you have a good strong cell signal when doing a data call. Let me know if I can give you any more information. hth Jeff Molzow [EMAIL PROTECTED]
