They both work under OS/2. Sometimes neither is available on the road. I have a cell phone with Cingular service. They have a Windows application called Cingular Communication Manager. Under Win I can connect the phone as a modem, and Comm Mgr will dial into Cingular and connect me to the WEB. I have the choice of paying for time or traffic volume; I chose time. I would rather not connect under Win; security concerns. Under OS/2 I can get the phone to dial using AT&T or iLink/2 dialers. What I would like to do is connect thru Cingular like I am doing under Win. Any suggestions on an application and how I can get the information that app would need to be accepted by Cingular. I have not called Cingular yet because I assume the response will be "what's OS/2", or even "what's IBM". I have actually gotten the second response from another company. If I cannot get to the WEB thru Cingular I assume that just leaves subscribing to a dial-up ISP. I only need this a few weeks per year. I would rather not pay for a service I hardly use. I have a free service but it does not seem to stay connected very well. If that is on purpose I can understand it. Connection time is not free, someone has to pay for it. Suggestions? Ray
