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

[PowerMac]

I finally talked to someone at AT&T who seemed to know what they were 
doing, and he told me that AT&T does not support using the T68i via 
infrared or bluetooth as a dial-up modem - you can only connect to the 
internet using their GPRS system (mMode).
