Is there any possibility that the internet be accessed on my Laptop with a cellphone (T720i) without using GPRS, which is very expensive through C&W.

hahahaha, hmm 25c per kb, or 10 bux per minute. sure u can use a laptop to dial a number thru ur cell phone, but are u sure the cost is justified?

Megiddo,
Tell me the cost if you know, and what is the procedure for dial-up

You would have to dial an ISP regular dialup number whether via cable/infra-red/bluetooth from laptop to phone and the regular call charges will apply.

but basically to make the call, connect the phone via infrared or cable, and run the network wizard that come with xp. after uve setup the connection u shud be able to juss dial out, and voila
