Is there any way to get online from an Itouch by attaching a cell phone in order to get online? I don't have wireless access at work and it would be great to be able to get online. I don't have ATT so getting an Iphone is not an option. I have gen2 ITouch. Thanks

This will depend on what kind of cellphone you have and what kind of software is available for it.

I don't know for any other OS, but if you have a Nokia with Symbian then Joikuspot is the perfect solution:

The 'light' version is fully functional for web browsing.

yeah, this works like a charm. but you need windows mobile. plus it drains the phone battery like crazy.

Shucks! I was hoping you folks could help me out. I can only access wireless when I am at home. Is that correct? Unless I can find public access.
