I blog very sporadically, a post per quarter or so, but write about stuff where there isn’t an answer on the Internet. 20 years ago, somehow I had become the US expert on how to pair your Palm Pilot with your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone to connect to the Internet using GPRS for email, SSH or basic web browsing (even then the bane of JavaScript had made browsing unusable on the pre-iPhone browsers).
That’s because cell carriers, uninterested in data, had no instructions to tech support on how to make this work, and indeed tried to suppress it. I can’t tell how much appreciative feedback I got for it:
