There is absolutely no reason for MPT. All it does is enter in the login info and setup the dial-up connection for you. There's no hidden drivers or communications layer... MPT's internet setup is just a bunch of scripts. With Bluetooth, or you download the latest Motorola USB drivers and just set up the connection manually.

For Motorola you'd need Motorola Phone Tools though. You’re right. $15 on a smart phone and with Nokia and Motorola you can also use them as a modem.

Sprint announces a 5GB limit on their data, and AT&T follows by announcing free, unlimited WiFi included at no extra cost- in thousands of locations nationwide, and all at the same price as Sprint's data. Now if AT&T wouold just lower their data price for smart phones, there would be no reason whatsoever for anyone to ever consider Sprint. Another nail in the coffin of Sprint…

This removes people from its cellular network and gives people faster data service. I have no idea how Sprint will compete unless they lower their price. They just don't have the WiFi reach.
