T68i good phone I've got one,$1900 for the cable you will get a driver for the cable also,it's simple to put the phone with the P.C.just load the driver's and software you get with the phone and put in the cable C.D.attach the cable install the driver for the cable it should find the driver on the C.D.if not let the found new hardware run direct it to the C.D. for the driver,attach the phone, you have to now set up the dial up for the phone,click the dial up networking wizard and follow the instructions,you will still have to do some configurations to get better service but that's for another time, and you should be on your way to paying 25 cents per kb with digicel,C&W will soon be charging for there net service too,it's now $9 per day but will go up don't know how soon,you may want to unlock the T68i and use it with both digicel and C&W just change over the Sim card,don't know why these people lock these phone's to give you the hastle to unlock them but that's the money making part of it.
