techonology geeks - iTouch + 3mobile broadband?

Is it with a dongle? If so, I don't believe you can hook up directly to the dongle but if you have the network broadcasting from your PC/laptop you may be able to log into the wireless network.

HH ive wondered this too as I have a touch, but I searched and found the link above. I guess it makes sense for them not to make this possible, as the iPhone exists. Shame though.

I was just about to get very excited after I saw the picture, but clearly its just wishful thinking. I suppose they lack the proper USB docks and presumably the drivers ?

Ahhh well. what a bummer. Thanks for answering that for me.

btw - loving that both of you have Beeker-based avatars. ?

Oh yeah!! I have avatars switched off at work so couldn't see it.

Beeker rules ?

It takes Beaker to answer geek questions lol. I may have been thinking of the iPhone - can the iTouch connect to your home wireless network?

I d imagine that since apple spent billions developing the iphone and itouch that the last thing they want is people trying to effectively convert an itouch into a voiceless iphone on the cheap ?
