I am too cheap to use GPSR and instead I want to use my T68i as a bluetooth dail up modem.

As I understand it my current provider (AT&T) does not support CSD. Anyone know a GSM provider (beside T-Mobile) in SF/Bay Areas which offer CSD?

I knwo T-Mobile will work but thier reception is VERY bad for my area.

Thanks

Well, Cingular is the only other GSM provider in your area, and it's the exact same network as T-Mobile (T-Mo uses Cingular's network in CA, while Cingular uses T-Mo's network in NY), so I hate to say it, but you're probably up a creek until AT&T deploys unlimited GPRS. :(

Not sure I want to spend $99/month for GPSR ... I guess I will stick to my side kick for mobile web browsing for now ...:-(

You can still pay 99 dollars a month for unlimited on att actually =D
Hmm, I guess I meant "reasonably-priced unlimited". ;)
