Doubt it, most sane people would use a PC modem of some description on a land line to connect to the net!

Yeah, I have a 600K BB connection up here in my room but no phone line.... I have the BB cut off till Friday and my mobile gives me a 115.2K connection.... might as well make use of it... faster that the land line any ways

the 115.2k connection is the connection speed between the phone & the computer, not the GPRS speed, thats more like 32kbps!
Orange GPRS used to be quite good about 14 months ago, but its gone pretty shite now, sometimes I cant even connect to it & when I do it always times out!
