Go up one level in this thread


When I was in the US (and London/England) a few months ago (I might soon be
again) I was asking in America all about Internet for Palm, and they told me it
wouldn't help me out of America, as it would need a special wireless internet
station in my country, and it is only in America (atleast not Israel). Unless
I'm prepared to use internet wireless via long-distance connection to the US
(from Israel, or whatever other country I might be visiting)
  In the end I just bought my Handspring with a regular Handspring Palm modem
(for $120, what a waste of money!)and thought "anything for education".
 I have not used it yet, nor do I think I will, nor did I ever see much point in
it.
 The only place I can have a normal phone line outlet would be at home, and
there I can use a normal computer.
Palm internet is only for world travel, or other occasional uses mainly in
transit.
Is this correct, that it is only good for use in a country which has the
wireless internet provider?
