I'm forwarding this to the regular Vanagon list because I too would like to learn what options there are. It would be very useful to be able to access the list (and email/internet in general) via my laptop when I'm camping in my Westy over the summer! My laptop has a modem but don't believe there is any way to interface it with my cell phone (a digital Audiovox with Bell Atlantic service, in my case). Is this strictly a function of the individual cellular carrier's capabilities, or is there a universally adaptable solution? - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. http://www.busdepot.com
