Is it possible to update weather without internet?

Does anyone know if I can get the weather feature to update on my Vogue through ActiveSync or the USB cable somehow? I have the Bell HTC Touch with no WiFi

I've been trying to find a way to get internet through Bluetooth but I don't think it's possible either

*Solved, see pic below in post #9*

Get SERO. I dont think Sprint has a cheaper plan than the $30 sero and you get unlimited internet.

Nah, can't justify spending the $7, EVERY month for the next 3 years.

Why the fu%$ did they have to remove the WiFi!

I think I'll just end up spending a few cents every month on data charges

NOTICE TO MODS: THIS IS JUST A PUN, I MEAN NO HARM WHEN I SAY BASTARD. IT IS JUST A FRIENDLY STATEMENT. PLEASE DON'T BAN ME FOR THIS. THANKS.

Got to be careful, you never know just how bipolaris someone is feeling and ban you with out thinking rationally.

Yeah, that $24 dollar bill would be a killer after paying that high $17 a month bill...sheesh! Seriously man, pay for the data...and stop whining about Wifi...

back to your question...
yes, you can, if you are syncing (connected via ActiveSync), either by USB or bluetooth... (given that your computer you are syncing to is ONLINE)

Well I'm gonna appear pretty whipped for saying this, but the girlfriend says no $7 data plan for me. Don't ask why :P. $7 is nothing for me though

So no means no, lol.

Anyways pjrey, I ActiveSync everyday to my computer with internet, but how do I get it to update the weather? Am I missing a setting somewhere? (Using Mobile Device Center in Windows Vista)

WOW AM I A DUMBASS OR WHAT?! (If there was a poll, I'd vote yes.)

Problem fixed.

I never saw this checkbox before..."allow data connections when connected to PC"
LoL...it's not the first time I've answered my own post

Here is a better question, why do you have a $500 phone but no $7 internet. Just tell the GF you need to sync emails wirelessly, even if the co can't do it. Business related expense. Tell her the co added $2 a week to your pay for it. She can't prove it.
