Hi jeff. i have the sanyo 4500 so it sounds like yours ihs just a couple versions up from mine. Good. I'm glad to see those phones with serial connections are outt there because all I ever hear from sprint about is USB but I guess in that case you can get the adapter which I hear works well for USB to serial, but I've heard that USB to parallel is very bad. Anyway, glad to see anouther springt user is doing this well and I also have that 5 dollars on my plan and quite a big plan since I can't get a vision phone right now and I see no reason to change phones when this one works and there is a lot about it i still like. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Molzow" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, April 04, 2004 8:12 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] conecting cell phone to the BN?
