I have signed up for the data plan on my phone but I am not sure how to set up my phone to use Internet. Can someone point me to the right direction on how to do this?

Oh...I think I found a site with the information that I needed.

Connection Name: Cingular GPRS 3G
Select A Modem: Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Access Point Name: wap.cingular
User Name: (Use all caps) WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
Password: (Use all caps) CINGULAR1
Domain: (Leave this blank)

I am able to connect to at&t's data network but I am worried that the network information that I am using might unleash some unexpected charges even though I am on an unlimited data plan. Can someone confirm that this is correct?

Thanks!

Thanks for the confirmation!
I called AT&T and becaue the Touch is not an authorized AT&T phone they would not help me. I told them to "pretend" it's an 8125 since they both run WM, the specs are ruffly the same and he still refused to help me. Why would they turn down a customer willing to drop $50 a month just because the phone is not authorized on the AT&T network?

Anayways, I got the info I need no thanks to customer support so I'll stop my ranting here.

As long as you have the unlimited data plan I do not believe that you should incur any additional charges. I have a touch with BB connect for my push email system and a unlimited data package and there are no additonal costs.
