How can my laptop go web surfing through a cell phone connection?

#1 (**permalink**) 10-20-2009, 01:59 AM

I don't have $60 to pay for a 5GB data plan. So I'm think how I can
have my laptop go online through a cellphone connection. I heard some
way-smart people know how to make that work. I wish I can do that
too. But what phone is required exactly? How does it work exactly?
Do I have to pay extra for anything? Which cell phone company to go
with? Thanks.

Get a TM506
Get the Unlimited Data package.
Connect to the TM506 with Bluetooth PAN.

If the iPhone is really so impressive,
why do iFans keep making excuses for it?

Where and how did you get that from what I wrote?
"Unlimited Data package" for the "TM506" does not cost $60.
Unlimited Web for phones promotional is free for the first month,
only $10 per month thereafter. Capice?

Thank you John for helping. Where do you find this unlimited Web for
phones at www.t-mobile.com? I just can't locate it.

Shop for a Rate Plan, then add the Service.

Do you know if MyTouch 3G would allow a laptop to go online?

Not out of the box, but I suspect someone has written software for that.

The Google phones like the My Touch require a $25/month data plan (on top
of your voice plan), though.
