…we all listen and that’s because he is always providing terrific and invaluable information.  Today, Werner Ruotsalainen posted about  Mobile Stream releasing a new version of Windows / Linux / Mac OS X-compatible USB Modem application.  Definitely worth looking at!

In part, Werner said:

Anyone using a WM5 AKU3 Pocket PC Phone Edition (any WM5 device with a newer, even unofficial, “enthusiast” ROM) device as an external modem for his or her desktop computer or notebook* knows the new AKU3, while it indeed has a lot of goodies, has several connectivity-related restrictions, most importantly the lack of infrared connectivity (infrared-based dial-up has been left out from the newly-introduced Internet Sharing utility, as opposed to its predecessor, Modem Link) and the lack of using the Dial-up Networking Bluetooth profile. The latter can be a real pain in the back especially for other Microsoft Bluetooth stack or Mac OS X users.

Check out the rest of what  "Menneisyys"  had to say here at Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine or see it here in the Mobilitysite forums.
