Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way of connecting to the net using my Visor Deluxe?
I don't expect to do a LOT of surfing. However, it would be nice to have the convenience.

Cable to Cell Phone
Depending on your service provider, you may be able to connect your visor to your cell phone and surf the internet that way. I think it works on CDMA networks like SprintPCS and Verizon. Both www.gomadic.com and www.cable4pdas.com sell cables which would work for you.
Good luck!

I just looked at both. www.gomadic.com did not seem to have anything for me (I have a Nokia 5160). www.cable4pdas.com would not even load.
What I'm actually interested in is a way of connecting wirelessly rather than having to connect to my cell phone (although would be an exceptable alternative).
Thanks.

OmniSky won't work w/ the VDX & I've heard bad things about YadaYada (though I don't really know that much about it). Have you got an IR port on that Nokia? That would be the easiest solution!

Well, there's the visorphone. That'd do it.
