Connect2Internet v2.6 Released
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "SOFTWARE" @ 05:00 PM
"connect2internet offers you fast and easy access to the internet with your Pocket PC...more than 70 mobile phones and over 150 network operators worldwide are supported and detected fully automatically." The "regular" version of the application includes a GSM dialer, a 1-Click GPRS Manager, and autodetection of both network and phone. connect2internet PRO adds an SMS client, SMS Group Manager, Phonebook Sync, and the ability to dial out from the Contacts list on your Pocket PC.
The list of network operators has vastly increased from the first generation of this product. Supported North American networks are Cingular, T-Mobile, AT&T, Rogers Wireless and Fido. This software was developed in Europe, so they support most European networks.
But what if your network isn't supported? Well, in their words, you can "Get c2i for free!! Provide us information about network operators which are not in the list and you will get your personal version of c2i for free! We integrate your settings in c2i and you will then be able to have autodetection for your network provider. Send us an email and we send you a form and a test tool to run. You will only get a free copy if you provide full data from providers which are not in this list." connect2internet (WM 2002/2003) is $19.95. connect2internet PRO (WM2003 only) is $34.95. [affiliate]
Seems like a handy tool. Is this something you'd use, or do you already use it?
