Were you doing this with the phone's built-in browser, or through a
connected laptop or PDA? My wife's 6610 will connect via CSD if an
external computer (my laptop or PPCC) dials, but I can't configure the
phone to do it with the built-in WAP browser (I've heard it's a
firmware bug.)

You can use the free GPRS to connect to non-T-Mo wapsites like Yahoo,
but you need at least the $4.99 plan to use the T-Mo "T-Zones" WAP
deck.
