Hello--

I would appreciate any help you all could give me. I am looking to buy the Innogear 6-pack when it comes out. My cell phone contract just ran out and I am going to sign a new contract soon on a digital system. What cell phone should I buy to link up with my visor with the 6 pack? Is the 6 pack a cell modem or just a connector to a phone with a cell modem? Any suggestions? Qualcomm, Motorola, Ericson? Models?

Thanks

I asked the same type of question at the innogear site. My message below w/ Inno' reply:

To: [email protected]
Will the SixPak work with a Motorola StarTac ST7790 digital/analog???

From your picture, I'm assuming that it will fix into the headphone/mic jack at the top of the phone?

Also, release date??
Thanks Art Schregardus

THEIR REPLY:
We cannot say for sure yet�SixPak is our third product in line, and will be ready in late Q1 2000. We will not speculate until we can test each phone and then create a cable assembly. We will post supported phones as testing and cables becomes ready, but certainly the StarTac line is one that we want to be compatible with.

THEN I ASKED THIS QUESTION:
Is it possible to PREORDER the 6pak???? I realize that you're not going to sell/ship unitl 1st qtr, but I'd like to be first in line....

THEIR REPLY:
We would love to but we need to establish pricing first. Please go to www.innogear.com and get on our mailing list and/or send an email to [email protected] and you will be amongst the very first group. We will send out a new flash as soon as we have pricing and availability. We expect to be taking advance orders in March.

There, that was fun!!!

Guaranteed it isn't a wireless modem. It basically will just be a connector to a cell phone.

Considering that lots of the stuff already exists for the Nokia line, I would consider Nokia. It used to be that GSM had the best stuff for data (and so I bought a GSM Nokia over a year ago) but it would seem that technology type is no longer a big differentiating factor. eg. lots of good stuff for CDMA, etc.

I sure hope it will connect to either my startac or my panasonic EB-G600...

I understood from an article here that the price would be below $200...
