I've tried GPRS with BPL Mobile and my Psion Revo PDA. Worked fine. Also tried setting up my Siemens ME45 as a modem in Linux. Wvdial detected it right away. Just follow the GPRS setup instructions from your provider. Then, use it like a normal modem, except the number dialled needs to be something special. In BPL's case, '*99#'.
