    Hi
            I use Verizon every night after 9 pm to call my aol email account. I connect at 14.4 and can send and receive email, photo's and visit different bank accounts. I don't have any special data contract with Verizon and all it costs me is minutes. Since I have unlimited nights and weekends even that is free.

    I looked at Verizon (my cell provider) and they want $80/mo for data. I
    was looking to use dial-up on my SBC internet account, for very casual,
    email use. I wouldn't mind the slow speed.

    Anybody using dial-up on their cell phone?

    Thanks,
