Subject line says it all: Will the MEdia Net Unlimited
package ($19.95/month) facilitate access to POP mail and web
surfing on the Nokia 9300 device?

(Yes, I know Cingular wants very much to sell a $40/month
data connect package, but that's not my question.)

Thank in advance!

Dunno if there are technical specifics involved with how the 9300 works
but if your question is basically is the $40 plan the same as the $20 plan,
the answer is yes, except for lack of VPN functionality.

I was told by Cingular that the software on the 9300, which runs
Symbion, wouldn't work with the Medianet plan. Whether it's true I don't
know--they don't seem all that competent.

On the other hand, I'm paying for the $40 plan, and when I use it I get
messages referring to Media not to DataConnect.

Worked fine with my Nokia 6620 which is also Symbian. Another
case of Cingular needing a couple of good whacks with the clue bat.
