I- 4 -1 am very glad Mr.Gilder is on the thread --PCS-TDMA Information

The connectors fit into the handsets, the rates are cheap, the ads look like you can send
and recive data through the Ericsson unit, so can you use your TDMA phone with your
Palm Pilot? The sad answer is no.

The TDMA network (not necessarily the handsets) is not capable of wireless data
transmission in its current state. The TDMA network service providers (AT&T, Cellular
One, Bell South) need to invest heavily in their network software to make wireless data
transmission.

So When will TDMA be Data Enabled?

AT&T states that the TDMA network will be data capable around the year 2001. It is also very likely
that the TDMA netwok as we know it will no longer be available by 2001.
