However, if I am at the grocery store, which does not have a wireless access and I want to get on the internet to check 4womentalk - then I have to go through my cellphone number. If I didn't have access to the internet through the cellphone number (connection), then I couldn't get on the internet at the grocery store.

My other phone, T-Mobile Dash, I didn't pay to have access to the internet through the phone number so I could only get on the internet when I had access to a wireless signal.

Now, with the iphone, I pay the extra $29 per month and I can access the internet any where I have a cellphone signal. That means that I can get on the internet 99% of the time, whereas when I could only get on when I could access a wireless signal, then my time on the internet was much less.

Does that make sense????
So, Janet, the IPhone would work just like Ricky's ITouch. AND, for $29/m, with the IPhone, you would get internet almost everywhere - going down the road in your bus.
