I must confess that I rarely leave my laptop behind when I travel. The Pocket PC is great, but I still can't whip up Visual Studio .NET on it. So, there I am with a wirelessly connected Pocket PC (Phone Edition) and a disconnected laptop. I recently posted about how to use the Pocket PC Phone Edition as a modem to your laptop. msmobiles.com just posted an article on how to use your Smartphone as your laptop's modem when your'e out traveling. Lots of detailed instructions, screen shots and pictures. Nice!
"If you have a notebook and need an Internet connection over infrared with help of your MS Smartphone then you can find in this article information how to do it. Typical task of cell phones is to serve a purpose of a modem for notebooks."
