  The OmniSky Minstrel S modem for the Handspring Visor Platinum and Prism brings together a wireless modem that slides into your Handspring’s Springboard expansion slot and offers full wireless e-mail and Internet service. Note that the Minstrel S modem does not work with the Handspring Visor or Visor Deluxe; additionally, OmniSky currently supports only a monochrome display.

  To use the OmniSky service, install the OmniSky software on your Visor and make sure the modem is fully charged, then slide the Minstrel S into your Visor’s Springboard expansion slot and turn it on. Tap the OmniSky icon to go to the OmniSky home page, which provides a single interface for the Internet, e-mail, and all of OmniSky’s services. Note that while you can view virtually all Web sites with the Minstrel S, OmniSky has partnered with many popular Web sites to offer optimized content formatted for the Handspring.

  The Minstrel S modem offers two-way wireless access to e-mail, corporate LANs, and the Internet, and it supports popular Palm OS enterprise productivity and synchronization programs. It comes bundled with POP3 e-mail and HTML Web browsing software. In addition, the Minstrel S has 2 MB of flash memory for storing applications.

  Using cellular digital packet data (CDPD) technology, the Minstrel S delivers data transmission at speeds up to 19.2 Kbps. The modem’s sleek design matches the look of the Visor handhelds. It comes with a stub antenna; three LEDs indicating service, data flow, and battery status; and one customizable feature button.

  Important note about service plan: The OmniSky Minstrel S requires a $39.95 monthly service plan, which allows unlimited usage. The OmniSky subscription plan also includes access to a free OmniSky.net e-mail account and six e-mail accounts supported through the OmniSky service.
