I do frequent the Howard Forums, and I've never seen a Nokia CDMA with IR available anywhere. If you know of a specific model with one, do let me know-- I've been hunting for some time. And I'd really like one with 1xRTT
(BTW, for trivia: it's worth pointing out the Motorola Timeport 270c had a BT addon, but it didn't have 1xRTT. The Sony Ericsson T60c apparently had a Bluetooth addon as well, and has 1xRTT, but I've not heard conclusive reports of success with this combination. Neither has IR.)

I've been doing this for almost 2 years on a Nokia 7160(the one that looks like the phone in the Matrix) the phone also came with a serial communications cable and you just needed a null modem adapter and a serial connector to your PPC to work via wires.

The 7160 is not CDMA, though, it's TDMA. And, actually, it wasn't the Matrix phone:
the 8110 was. Moreover, the 7160 won't support data on AT&T's network in the US, which makes it less useful for most people.

but it looks like it will via the IR port and will be your only option unless you purchase a USB to serial adapter, which are very expensive around $75.

Correct on the IR; the USB-to-serial, though, will
not work, because you need a USB host, and the 1910 doesn't have that functionality.
