It's not a modem in the perspective of PC-to-Internet communications, but a modem in the scientific perspective.
Besides, modem over GPRS is always emulated anyway because it is all kept in digital format -- so not a real modem anyway -- but a virtual PC modem (for PC-to-Internet use) over a different kind of a modem (the RIM modem)

Mark,
Thank you for doing a terrific jod trying to keep everyone up to speed on the relative info, and hope that you can help me. Everything seems to be inputed fine, the modem diagnostic even sends back the proper info and is alive. But once I connect threw the dial up I get a 777 error, the modem is
out of order on the remore computer?
Any help or direction would be appreciated.
Thankyou
Pierre
