I am posting this post off of the connection provided by my i415 phone. Its working alright, a little slow but definatly managable. Its even running my 8 chat connections or so I have set up on trillian to aim, msn, yahoo, and the such. I'll speed test it in a sec, as well as some situation tests to see what happens when it gets a phone call or if it can run its java apps while hosting the data connection.

One thing I noticed was my usb cable doesn't charge the phone while it is plugged in, and because the data port is also the charger port there is no way to simultaneously plug in the charger cable. I'll do some investigating on how to get that working too.

Does anybody know how to read the NEMA output on nextel phones GPS units without a USB cable? I know it is possible with serial, but I don't know how with USB.
