But I'll share my experiences. For accessing the on-board ring-tones / pictures / photos / etc., moto4lin is (a) buggy (b) didn't work in 64 bit mode last I tried (c) in x86 mode, works pretty well. It claims to support your phone: http://moto4lin.sourceforge.net/wiki/Category:Models For actually backing up messages and sending texts, kmobiletools seems to work well. I haven't tried using my mobile phone to connect to the Internet. My impression is that it should work rather like a normal USB modem. Hope this helps, James. -- E-mail address: james | Beneath this stone lies Murphy, @westexe.demon.co.uk | They buried him today, | He lived the life of Riley, | While Riley was away.
