Ok unfortunately TSTT will only make mzone avaliable to Post Paid Customers
they claim it is too difficult at this time for them to make it avaliable on prepaid due
to the difficulty of billing on that system.
Secondly your cell must have GPRS capability on it.
If you only have WAP it won't work

I have a nokia 9210i it has a html browser just like a pc. It does not have GPRS ( so it cant work with mzone) it has WWW and WAP. I was told by a tstt agent that the 9210i is supposed to be able to dial up to the net using a net express acount just like on a pc but she didnt know how. I tried setting it up like on a pc but it doesnt work. Any idea on how to configure it to connect to the net. Does my sim card have to be activated for it? Is it possible at all?

My GPRS experience so far is not too bad. Most of the time when there is a GSM signal I am getting my Internet connectivity.
Just 2 weeks ago (before the official GPRS launch), when I needed it most, being at the Hilton Tobago, I had some trouble getting online again after being online for about an hour or so. Trying to use TSTT NetExpress via the Hilton PBX (they charge USD 0.23 / minute) for the toll free call) lasted also only 25 minutes and all my TSTT Internet connection didn't work anymore. Well, my Carib-Link bakcup account worked fine. Due to the lack of the GPRS service for that particular event, I paid more for this Internet connection at the Hilton than I pay for my cell for a whole month. I therefore hope that TSTT's GPRS service will not be an unreliable service in the long run! I fullly understand that there are 'startup issues' ... once they get fixed I am a happy 'mzone' user. Oh, by the way ... I am not anymore on the freebee trail ... I pay for the unlimited package.
Since the launch I am having more trouble to keep the connection as I get dropped of quite frequently. A re-dial takes only seconds, but most web sessions are lost.

I am very happy with my GPRS. As I am on the road nearly whole day mzone is a big help for me to do my business.
I am using the Samsung V200 connected via the serial cable to my laptop to go online. As long as I have a GSM signal I am getting my Internet connection. The connection is quite reliable. Once online I stay online. Even when I use the phone to make a phone call while using GPRS I stay connected. So my cell phone isn't only reduced to be a modem. Wow. I hope it stays that way.
Only one thing could be better. But maybe the problem is on my site. The speed. It's supposed to be 115 kBit/s compared to the 48 kBit/s I get with my normal dial-up. I am not seeing any difference/improvement. Will try to figure out what it could be.
