[no subject]

I bought a Motorola V400 phone through Cingular several weeks ago.  There
is a USB cable / software package combo that allows for transferring both
multimedia and PIM-type information between PC and phone.  I don't know
if it also handles Java apps, or if Linux will handle the USB connection
properly (ideally, view the phone as a storage mount).

When I get a spare moment, I'll see about answering these questions.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking here.  Are you trying to ping and
FTP from the phone to your desktop, or do you simply want to establish
Internet connectivity with the phone providing the communications channel?
