With the SH888 you first enable IR port on the phone, then on the Palm with
OS3.3:
- open the Connection Preference panel, make a new connection, give it a
name, connection method set to "IrCOMM to Modem", dialing is TouchTone
- open the Network Preference panel, select as connection the new
connection you just made, enter your ISP details (phone number, username,
password).
- Click connect. The Palm dials the phone and starts a PPP connection to
your ISP. Then use any net aware Palm application (telnet, email, VNC, icq,
new, StockManger, etc)
30 seconds
