I have questions regarding the Browsing option. For $10/mth does it work? Do you also get charged air time while you are browsing? What is the speed like? I have a Panatech P7040P, does anyone know if it will work for Speakout Browsing? Does anyone know the APN code needed to get a non speakout phone to browse in Vancouver?

Here is the APN settings, your mileage may vary with the Panatech P7040P

Name: Speakout
APN: goam.com
Proxy: 10.128.1.69
Port: 80
Username: wapuser1
Password: wap

For $10 a month, you have unmetered browsing. There are no other surcharges. It is not unlimited though, so behave.

The speed is fast enough. Though you might get edge speed, because that is all that is promised.

thanks for info, unfortunately no luck getting it to work. When I was setting up the speakout info there was no where to key in a username or password. Also does the Name: matter. I have read in other posts that some say it does and it needs to be speakout wireless. didnt see that until i cancelled though. any info regarding where username & password would go is much appreciated. thxs

name doesn't, apn does. name is just for your own reading and identification, apn is equivalent to host name.
