Any chance that the drivers are available on the web somewhere. I can not locate my CD.

Anonymous Is this covered under the Unlimitted data plan? 5 Jul 29 2008, 1:03 AM EDT by Anonymous

This sounds like a nice option for internet access on my laptop. Howerver, is this covered under the normal 19.95 unlimitted data plan with cingular? I would hate to be hit with extra charges.

Thanks,
Jeff

Does anybody know where I can find modem drivers for the Cingular 2125 that are compatible with Vista? I can no longer use the phone as a modem for my laptop now that I've upgraded to Vista. Thanks!
