No GPRS

I talked about how I was setting up my laptop and cellphone to dial in to the Internet last time, and that it didn't work. Well, it does now; my PPP configuration wasn't complete (missed 'usepeerdns' and 'user' configuration parameters), but is now. Next, I wanted to get it to do GPRS, but that is unfortunately not possible with BASE, my mobile phone operator — at least not unless I get myself a different account, one which is going to cost twice as much as my current one. Well, not a chance. Sorry.

I had a look at vmelilo today, too – that is, before I managed to get my VME box to hang while loading a different kernel than the one I wanted to load (silly idea, that). Apart from that, done (quite) a little research on how mono does ODBC. Have a meeting about that tomorrow... well, today, in the mean time. In an hour or so.
