Just to be clear this is GPRS, but it's not really marketed like true
GPRS service.  It is basically cellphone WAP rates/pricing, not a
service like EDGE, etc.  The reason I pay $13 for 4MB is because I don't
want to pay $60 for unlimited when I only use ~2MB. :-)

Sorry, I meant cellular modem.  I do have a softmodem problem that I've
been working on, but that's for another thread.
