[BTM] Palm Tungsten T and T68i - dialup connection (OT?)

[Benjamin Ing]

You need to make sure that your cellular provider supports the old 
dialup method of internet connection (it may be known as HSCD for High 
Speed Cellular Data). My provider here in LA, Cingular definitely 
provides it (since I use it), but I am not sure that AT&T has 
implemented the equipment to allow access with this method. It is quite 
possible that since they jumped on the GSM bandwagon late, they may 
have simply bypassed that other method and just support GPRS.
