sending fax via Sony Ericsson phones?

I have a W880. I was wondering if there's any way of sending faxes
using my mobile and my laptop. I don't think so as the Bluetooth modem
/ wired modem in the phone doesn't seem to do fax; but can anybody
confirm and/or find a way round?

thank you.

I thought that, so I tried it out. It seems to be missing the AT
command set relating to faxes; with both Bluetooth and wire modem, it
won't repond properly to that set, whilst it will to the "dial-up"
style AT set. So I think I must have one of the phones that won't
unfortunately.

I think I've tried it with other Sony Ericsson phones in the past, if
I remember correctly, and had similar problems :-(

indeed, as a last resort :-(

Thanks for your thoughts
