The magic internet search shows you can get it at:

It looks like it recently changed to a commercial product. They have a download trial, but I don't see on their site what the restrictions are. It's not priced too bad at 15 Euros. (So what's that...about $225 with the current exchange rate?  )There are still some sites that have the beta freeware version available.
Internet connection sharing does look like it makes the dialer obsolete. I really haven't used my smartphone (HTC Apache with the WM6 upgrade) to anywhere near it's full potential. I just turned sharing on, and my PC found a Remote NDIS Based Internet Sharing Device. Unfortunately I live at a point far from 3 Sprint towers, so I'm only getting 39 kbps 1X speed. I'll be taking it on a trip tomorrow to an area with the $10/day wi-fi access, so this should help a lot.
Thanks for the information everyone. |
Ha Ha i like the exchange rate comment. lol
Honestly i have no use for it. I mean whats to point? other than you can get a wifi card for your laptop? I could understand if you had a home computer and your lucky to find free wifi.
