We signed up for a new Verizon plan in January and got a Motorola T730 internet-able phone and their Mobile Office Kit at the same time. Amoung other things, the phone has a GPS chip and changes it's own time when it moves into a new time zone. The internet software and cable cost $80.00 but there is no charge for internet access other than the minutes you use. With 400 anywhere minutes and free nights and weekends we haven't found minutes to be a problem. Verizon claims it's faster than dialup and I can't dispute that because I haven't paid close attention to that. It seems about the same as dialup to me. Our only complaint is that the PC is supposed to power the phone throught the USB cable and I don't think it's doing that. Probably a PC problem rather than the phone.
