    I recently got one of those pcmcia mobile connect cards from vodafone for my laptop and was wondering if anyone knows of any software i can get to make voice calls on it.

    The sw it somes with only lets me connect via gprs / although i can make GSM data calls through hyperterm... just cant seem to make voice calls.

    Can Anyone Help...

    I've removed the Vodafone s/w and used the default Option s/w package, but it doesn't work. Apart from requiring the purchase of a headset (supplied free with the Option card in other territories), I'm not sure if it will require a firmware flash to open up the card for voice calls. However, as I had a Nokia Data Card which DID do voice calls, and I never used it, it's not a high priority - although I agree it could be usefyl, and a mystery why they chose to limit the functionality.

    I gather there's a Series 2 card on the way, which doesn't have this limitation.

    No you can't make voice calls on it :( but you can send text messages directly from your notebook with it if thats any good to u.
