Hi there I have a siemens me45 (similar to the s45) and have used irda with success, on the me45 you can turn irda on and off, I actually have made a voice command to do that, so that it only use the battery when it's needed.
I just miss a good syncronization tool that work with evolution, but thats another thing. -->nikolaj On Wed, 2003-07-09 at 18:51, Manolis Tzanidakis wrote: > Hello all, > I recently got a Siemens S55 mobile phone, that supports GPRS > and I'd like to use it with my compaq presario 724ea laptop > (sid installed).
