In every email to my Sprint business plan rep, I repeated that I needed tethered modem access on two of my PDA/Smartphones. I got my Palm 775 to connect with no problems, but upgraded to the Palm Treo Pro with Windows. I haven’t gotten around to getting it to connect, but a CS rep me it can’t be done without a PAM plan added now (that was in early September). I’m on the business version of the Simply Everything plan with four phones.

I’m just tired of having several dropped calls every day, especially when I’m coordinating cut-overs with telco tech support. I know that all carriers have some problems, and coverage was all right in the parts of the country I tried it out; but after using it in two counties for the past two months, I realize this is simply not a good fit for me.
