Use A cell phone as a Laptop Modem

Now per my last blog I mentioned using future dial to connect a laptop or computer to the internet. This method now that I am mentioning here is using Bluetooth. The only thing is that it works with some blue tooth phones only. It really depends on the manufacture. Verizon wireless blocks most of it's Bluetooth services but they do sell a broadband kit for most of there phones that they sell.
If you do have a EV-DO capable phone well let's just say they all are equipped with modems and if you can find the proper cable for that phone to connect to your laptop or PC. You can easily get a internet connection speed of 464kps, exactly like getting a regular dialup connection. Hopefully free broadband will be someday available everywhere, but for now we have to use our available resources to get more for our money. Feel free to go a google search on using a cell phone modem.
