Mac OS X Panther Hacks: Share Your Mac's Net Connection With a Bluetooth Phone
Overview Soon after going Bluetooth with the authors Nokia 3650 in the summer of 2003, he discovered that one of his favorite programs from Palm OS days, Avantgo, would not sync between the 3650 and the Mac. Rather, Avantgo is designed to sync via the phone's GPRS connection. The author ran the sync once over that connection and quickly blew through the 1MB per month of connectivity that his cellular account provided him. According to the logs, 3.46MB of data had been downloaded to the phone. Because of that one sync, his bill that month was three times what it was supposed to be. He needed to find a better and less expensive way to get the information he wanted on his phone.
