i know you can do it with att/cingular but it will be expensive. you will be paying 1cent per kb.

I understand it's possible with T-Mobile, both in the USA and in Europe, and you can get a T-Mobile SIM card for any unlocked GSM phone.

But if you have an unlimited internet plan with them it shouldn't cost anything above the $15.00 (or maybe $19.99 MediaMax) monthly charge, right?

I can do it successfully with an N800 & an W810 on Orange UK.

I tried it out too successfully.

It would be very expensive no doubt! |Not tried, but you should be able to work it as long as you can tether them together i.e. with bluetooth, in the first place...

Where are you located?

The phones you get with T-Mobile prepaid can't do it (unless there is a hack). Maybe you can use a different phone. I would be interested - I have T-mobile prepaid phone for a ridiculously low amount per month ($10 to $15/mo.) - but have been told there is no data plan Tmobile prepaid.

I am doing it with verizon inpluse I get evdo and 1xrtt fine on it . I am useing phones i got from ebay a v710 dun 1xrtt only and a E815 . Both work great . With verizon it works out good if you don;t plain to use it ever day . I have one phone just for my n800 the cost is not to bad works out to be the same price as there $60.00 data plane if you where to use it every day. but with prepaid it works out nice you only pay for the days you use the phone .99 cents a day gets you evdo/1xrtt for 24 hours . The best part of doing it this way is you can't get hit with $4000's bill. check out http://www.howardforums.com/showthre...9#post10547589 it's a great help to geting it working.

When i login to my prepaid account and view my calls and stuff it just shows up as moble web with the date and time . not bad for .99 a day . I only use it maybe 10 days a month

^that is good to know...

Another cheap way is to purchase a used Nextel Bluetooth phone on Ebay and use a pre-paid Boost SIM in it. You will then be able to access iDEN's 19.2 kbit/s DPD network for $0 a day. :)
