Sorry to join the conversation so late but this is my favorite so far as a

As root, I drop the following in a terminal:
*iptables -A POSTROUTING -t nat -j MASQUERADE -s 192.168.0.0/24
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
ip addr add 192.168.0.200/24 dev eth1
ifconfig eth1 up
ssh r...@192.168.0.202*
Works like a charm. Only caveat is make sure you clear the previous SSH

I debated for about 10 minutes whether or not this article is pertinent to
this mailing list. In the end, I decided to forward it. I think it's a
good sign that the analysts are even looking at the "open handset trend."
Operative word is "trend", perhaps?

AT&T in the US does offer SIMs without a phone. However, you have to go
into a Corporate store. The resellers generally won't or can't do this. I
do not know, however, if they offer SIMs with contracts. To my knowledge,
they only do this with "pay as you go" SIMs.

I think what Ian is trying to say is that contract or not, you still have to
pay for your phone service and data service. So if you spend US$50/mo on a
data plan, it does come out to be more expensive with the FreeRunner if and
*only if* you plan to use the phone for two years. if you plan on dit

I think I'm going to have to completely disagree on this one. I RARELY plug
