Okay, here's the deal- I have a prepaid cell phone and that's it.  I
don't have regular phone service in my apartment.  I went wireless for
a while and would like to stay wireless.  Can I get internet access
without a phone line in an apartment?

Clarification of Question by dblsdoig2005-ga on 22 Mar 2005 10:40 PST

Any recommendations for local service- Chicago

Do you want broadband?  (you can get internet access through a cell
phone although it is slow).

You probably want broadband through cable - do you currently have cable tv?

You can use your mobile phone.
Technology allowing you to do this - GPRS.
It will work if you have bluetooth (infrared, cable) in your phone and
such adapter in computer.

if you want wireless broadband in chicago, visit

to see if the service is available in you neighborhood
