I'm going to offer some information as someone who used to work in the data department for the cell phone companies......maybe it's already been posted but I'm nice enough to type this out so don't get mad.

For Verizon, using the #777 connection will only work if you have a profile in the company's LDAP server authentication program. And this doesn't happen until you sign up for their data service......either the blackberry/PDA/aircard service or even just the cheap regular service you can get to use your cell phone as a modem. Now once you get this profile it's never deleted so the following month if you remove the feature from your account, you still have the LDAP profile. The problem is it's disabled so you shouldn't be able to use it. But who knows.
Now for the QNC, this stands for Quick Net Connect and allows you to use your phone as a modem but charges you based on time as opposed to above which is charged by data. That's why it APPEARS to be free, because you're using your minutes from your bucket. And chances are you have unlimited minutes for nights and weekends. You can either dial #777 with QNC as your parameters or just dial #888 and leave the parameters blank.....either way will do it.

As for IDEN phones, these work a bit differently and the server software they're using to accept the input strings has a huge bug......it allows you to pass statements to the parser via the String. So if you set your dialout number for your internet connection as s=2 and leave the parameters blank, it'll access the internet and you'll never get a bill. Some people might be thinking....."Ya, sure......did you hear that from a friend of a friend?" Well.....no......I used to work there. I was responsible for testing this, which I did, and it worked. So good luck, hopefully the glitch isn't limited to the one company.
