I have a couple of different iPAQs (2215 & 3970) and I'd like to connect to
my ISP through my cell phone.  My preference is have it count against my
normal minutes but that may not be possible.  I have AT&T wireless now but I
don't believe I can do it with them.  At least no one seems to know at AT&T.

Anyone have any experience with this and/or can offer some leads on which
service providers can allow me to do this?  I'd like to be able to connect
to the internet without having to rely on wi-fi as my only option.

Thanks for any help....

Normally you can't just count it again minutes because it is actually a
different type of service.  Data is metered by size where calls are metered
by minutes.  The problem with metering data with time is that, well, let's
just say people would be "unhappy" if their connection speed dropped and
charged them more.

T-Mobile is a good provider for data, though it is only at modem speed.
Unlimited for $20 isn't bad if you use it.
