Dear All

The List Archive shows that a Globetrotter GSM 900/1800/1900 GPRS card 
worked with a Newton and was able to provide email on the move.

See here: for examples:

Leading to actual pictures here:

Other internet sources seem to suggest that the Vodaphone 3GPRS card is 
the same underneath as the Globetrotter.

Does anyone know if this is true and if so whether this item would work 
with a Newton using the same settings as for the Globetrotter?

Thanks for any advice.
