2. What kind of phone do you have?
3. Was it easy to get working?
4. Who is your service provider?
5. How affordable is your data plan?
6. What else should users know about that phone/provider/plan?

Especially with the holidays approaching - it's a good time to talk gadgets.
1. Yes
2. Samsung M619
3. Not too bad, but for some reason, when I established bluetooth connection, phone would keep freezing up. Had to do try this about 5-7 times, before bluetooth profile was stable on phone.
4. Sprint PCS
5. I was paying $20/mon for Sprint Vision, however, it wouldn't work for DUN. I had to upgrade to $40/mon for unlimited data to use my phone as a modem. I am getting a blackberry for work, though, and will be getting my data with that device. I'll post an update then.
6. See below:

I have a question for anyone out there using Sprint, or may have run into this problem from other carriers. I have been trying to get the video IM client to work over Sprint's network to video conference with my PC using GoggleTalk. However, every time it establishes a connection, my phone (modem) cuts out. It does not do this when I am simply in a chat session, on the internet with flash video, etc., so I do not know if Sprint has purposely block video chat traffic on their network. If any one has any info about this or if any one else
has run into this problem, I'd appreciate knowing about it. Thanks!
