However, the down turn came when after a very short time of fast internet access, the message popped up that the internet connection was terminated because "the other side wasn't responding." I have tried 3 more times and connect very well and then it soons terminates with the same message.
Does anyone know a solution. Oh, please! Thanks, JoAnn
i have sprint PCS Vision and i have encountered the same issue. i sont have a treo, i have a samsung, but i believe this issue is with the connection itself and sprint being a bunch of bastards. anyway, i ahve found if you are contsantly visiting pages; constantlty sending a signal you will stay connected. i wrote a short script that costantly refreshes a page. you can view that page here
