Actually, the connection with the infrared ports and downloading mail
worked great. The thing that's hit and miss is using the cell phone as a
phone. The new phone doesn't seem to pick up a signal as well as the old
one. But that's outside the topic of this list, so I won't discuss it any
more here. <grin> I'm just delighted with how well the BN and cell phone
work for downloading mail. I might not use it a lot around home, but it'll
be great on trips.

Hi, Peggy and everyone. I wonder if you could use one of these cell phone
wireless cards that I have seen? I think they are PC/MCIA cards that you
put into your laptop port. They have an antenna that sticks up. I wonder
if that would work instead of using infrared between a cell phone and a BN?

Hi, guys. Well I finally got to experience the joy of a cell phone and
the BN connected via infrared, and it truly is amazing. I was able to
download my email this evening, and it worked great. I'll be looking
forward to going on vacations now, knowing that I'll have ways to connect
to the net even when I can't connect to a regular phone line. The only
tricky thing for me now is getting the reception to work better on the
phone when I use it as a phone. <grin> But it's fun to see what
technology allows us to do.
