There are several things I want to mention... First, I was talking to someone about accessing the RAZR from Linux via USB. (Sorry-- I'm terrible with names.) The program that I use is moto4lin, and is available for free from SourceForge at: http://moto4lin.sourceforge.net/wiki/Main_Page . One may (or may not) need p2kmoto, which is available from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/moto4lin (the information is available from the main page). All-told, the installation of both parts are covered in the documentation, and it's pretty straight-forward. Second, I had asked several about Ruby tutorials, and mentioned that I found one source that was a bit... ...odd, though I couldn't remember the name of it. It is "Why's (Poignant) Guide to Ruby, which is found at http://poignantguide.net/ruby/ . Third, as for a list of what my employer has for what we are getting rid of, we're in the process of building a list... When something is available, I'll let you know. :) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- William Smith wsmith-at-chezsmith-dot-com Fall River, MA http://www.chezsmith.com "In this world, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.

My PC doesn't have BlueTooth. I'm using a USB cable to do the connection.

This is a personal phone, so the costs actually matter to me. :)

Has anyone else gotten it to work reliably with BlueTooth?
I'll be interested in this, too.

Absolutely. Oh-- Andy- My AP is a LinkSys/Cisco WAP54G. It's got this via SNMP: # snmpget -v 2c -c snmp_password_here 10.80.50.4 sysDescr.0 SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Linux (none) 2.4.20 mips -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- William Smith wsmith-at-chezsmith-dot-com Fall River, MA http://www.chezsmith.com I never imagined there might be a time that I would die defending the Constitution from those sworn to uphold it. * TAG! v3.2 *
