DO you want to use the Nokia as a GPRS modem to dial to the internet?

Hi
a) etsblishing connection is done by RConnect class or RNif and RGenrcicAgent on v6.1.
b) then use Socket API (Berkley sockets) class to build HTTP stack, which is not available on v6.1
c) there is no need to connect computer via GPRS, the communocation is transparent and doesnt depent on the link layer (could be PPP remote access via modem, ethernet... )
d) there is of course available hardware ( I saw at PCMCIA cards ) which connect your to Internet computer via GPRS..

Bye
