I thought I'd mess around with connecting my laptop up to a cell phone
to enable it onto the internet from time to time.  I know, the
connections are slow and all that but thought it a neet way to drag
the internet on the road with me.  The question here is, How do I go
about making Linux recognize my phone? I have an LG VX4500 model with
a USB cable with their mobile office kit; now that kit is obviously
rigged for windows but understand connectivity to linux is quite
possible and I recall Gene Collins doing this with his phone.

So I'm wondering if and what modules I might need tohook up the phone
probably to a USB connection.  Also, my machine doesn't have USB ports
but I am looking for a PCMCIA USB adaptor I could hopefully use.
