The connection on my Today showed that "The Internet" PC Connected, can
anyone tell me is the internet directly connected through my Desktop line
which I have an unlimited d/l plan?

Yes, when connected to a computer through ActiveSync your Pocket PC will be
using this computer's connection by default (unless you uncheck the option
on ActiveSync).

Is this applied to a pocket pc that with phone and gprs function? I am
afraid that there is charges applied to this internet connection by my phone
network provider.
Thanks.

It applies to all Pocket PC types, and to Smartphones as well. On Smartphone
you have to change the connection settings to Automatic.

On your Pocket PC you can test this by turning the cellular radio off
(Flight Mode) and placing it in the cradle.

Yes, I tried to turn "on flight mode" on my first try of internet
connection through PC. To be truth, I just need an expert to confirm that
there's no additional charges for this connection since GPRS just cost too
much.
Thanks MVP.

Yes, I understand. The GPRS connectio will not be used when the Pocket PC
Phone is in the cradle and ActiveSync passthrough is used.
