This article assumes that you already have the iPAQ configured to access the internet via GPRS."</i><br /><br />For those of us with a 63xx series iPAQ lying around, here is a nice article by Chris De Herrera outlining the steps you need to take to get your little bundle of joy to connect your BT-enabled laptop to the net (Sorry to those who don't like me referring to Pocket PCs with the same terms as I may refer to human offspring). A good tutorial for those of us who periodically stray from a broadband internet connection.

When I read this article in April, I thought to myself why do you have to go through all does steps getting it to work. It almost worked out of the box for me. Anyways the real challenge is getting the 6315 working on MACOSX. I made some progress , as far as making it dial , but it disconnects quickly.

The Problem stems from MACOSX recognizing the 6315 as a computer instead of a cell phone. once you over come this hurdle and forcing DUN , then the next problem is a Modem script that will work.

Yes, this is a viable solution for mobile internet.
This is actually doable using any bluetooth phone to access the internet from your PC or laptop.
