I just switched to T-mobile and I have the "T-MobileWeb" feature (like $6 a month). I connected my phone as a modem to my computer and webbrowsing and the official MSN Messenger works by going through the t-mobile proxy...
KJ_88 Thank you!!!
I had setup Skype with the HTTP Proxy of 216.155.165.50:8080 (skype chat only, don't try to talk)
but I never thought that MSN would work.
Yahoo Messenger doesn't, but I haven't tried AIM.
I found the skype info and how to get my laptop using my Sony PC Card (edge) to use the T-Zones (I bought it when it was T-Zones, not T-MobileWeb, so I'm one of the lucky ones that still pays $4.99, but I even at $5.99 it's a fantastic price)
Check out this site with more info on how to hook up everything on T-Zones / T-MobileWeb.
T-MobileWeb on the Smartphone or LaptopAgain thanks.
I have Have my laptop on T-Zones / T-MobileWeb and can
A) Surf the web (firefox only)
Check my POP3 Email (using outlook express)
C) have Skype Chat working (didn't try,nor want to try the talking)
D) NOW have MSN Messenger working.
I'm toping off at 160kbps (usually it hovers at about 50-70kpbs but sometimes I get lucky and I get the EDGE's top speeds)
The "Binary" limit you're talking about seems to be at any file under 200Kb so that means HUGE sites will simply come back with a "GATEWAY" error, but YOU'RE PAYING $5/month for internet anywhere.
I can live with those limits.
I haven't checked if I have attachments limits (maybe the same 200Kb)
