    Is it possible to transfer WWAN service from a Cingular 8125 to a Dell XPS m1210 laptop? I'm thinking I can move the SIM card from the cell phone to the computer then what? I already have WWAN service on the cell phone.

    Where would you put the SIM card in the laptop? I think you need an Air Card for the laptop, or set up tethering between the laptop and 8125.
