I recently saw (on an accessories site) a cable that could connect a "pda" to a cell phone for internet browsing. Stupid me I lost the site and deleted my history. This type of cable would be perfect for me as I own a Dell Axim X30 (no wireless). I was wondering if someone who knows more about this could help me out. I would need it to connect to my Motorola V600 or my Samsung X450.

Cheers

I've tried gomadic, my experience was very positive. They were very helpful although it didn't work for me. They were prompt in responses and refunded quickly when the item was returned.

Have you thought of selling your pda and getting the dell deal online that has a wi-fi? It'll probably be about the same amount of money if you take everything into factor since those cables aren't cheap.

Another vote for gomadic.
They have lifetime warranty, which include free exchange in case you switch PDA or mobilephone.

Love the Gomadic. I used their free exchange program and it went flawlessly :) If you don't have wifi, this is the next best thing, or in some cases even better since you can use it ANYWHERE you have cell phone signal!

You do need to have a compatible phone and service, but as long as that's covered, it's really the best :)
