    Hi Fern,

    It is my business line so I made sure that I am fully equipped. The data pack was part of that.

    SOJ,

    Very true, I am connected all the time. Truth be told I do shut it down from time to time.

    Sheesh. And to think, it is a treat for me to leave my little old cell phone at home for an hour or so when I am running errands! You are really connected now!

    Did you purchase the data plan as well? My husband also has the Treo and he has the data plan that gives him unlimited internet access for a set price. There was a mixup the first month and the cell phone provider accidentally billed him as if he didn’t have the unlimited plan. The bill was over $800. We both really freaked out before we realized that it was just a billing mistake.
