unlike with rogers payasyougo i couldn't switch the gprs apn to internet.com

confirmed also that there is no charge for browsing the ztar website.
checked out pages and pages of games etc.
transfered 22,948k and there was no deduction in my airtime.

GPRS Settings

Setting's name: Rogers

Session Mode: Permanent
Connection Security: Off
Data bearer: GPRS
GPRS access point: goam.com

Here's some of the email exchange I received:

"At this time the content for phones is supported only for Nokia handsets sold by 7-Eleven. Although, the Rogers GPRS settings will get the customer to the WAP site. They will not be able to surf another sites, nor will they be able to download Ringtunes etc since content is Handset specific."

So I'm not in a position to confirm whether or not wireless web can work unconditionally, or just to surf very specific content.

I can confirm that browsing the ztar.clearmode.com site doesn't cost anything. Downloading a ringtone or a game might, though.

I also emailed the 7-11 and clearmode folks, and didn't get a response regarding wireless web availability for SpeakOut.

yes the phone is unlocked, i will take a look, thanks.

if you have the unlocked iphone, there should be a setting somewhere in the settings menu that lets you mess around with EDGE

Specifics:

1. Go to prefs, select Network. Add a new service (or modify an existing one, should make a copy). I called mine Speakout:

Connection: GPRS
User Name: wapuser1
Password: wap
APN: goam.com

2. Click details, then Advanced. Uncheck automatic IP Address, and enter 208.200.67.150. I left Query DNS checked. You're done with Prefs.

3. Finally, in the Web application, in the menu select Options, then Preferences... Next choose Advanced, then Set Proxy. Check "Use Proxy" and enter in the Proxy Server line: 208.200.067.150, Port 80.

When you enter http://ztar.clearmode.com in your "open page" selection, you will be rewarded with the lamest of WAP pages offering you ringtones, graphics and games. But it's a start. Trying to open any other site returned an error.

From HoFo:

looks like Speakout's wireless web is working. Before you get too excited, as far as I can tell, currently you can't surf out and can only look at Speakout's meager offering of ringtones, graphics and games (pay to download, of course). I haven't been charged just to look around...

I'm not certain but i'm pretty sure I got charged while messing around on that crummy homepage on my phone.

I used the following settings on my Razr and worked.

Thanks Matt. FWIW on the Moto KRZR K1 those parameters didn't work. One difference I noticed is that "Gateway IP:" is labelled as "Proxy1:". Once I set that to 208.200.067.150 I was able to surf to http://ztar.clearmode.com.

I put the SIM in a Motorola Razr and if I try the browser it just says "no network found".
