I'll post a video soon but here is what I've done:
- Motorola A1000 phone talks to eo UMPC via Bluetooth, connects to 3G pipe via Three Mobile.
- Sony Ericson T610 talks to eo UMPC via Bluetooth, connects to GPRS pipe via Vodafone Network.
- BlackBerry 7290 talks to eo UMPC via USB cable and BlackBerry Desktop Manager Version 4.0.0.30, connects to GPRS pipe via Vodafone.
I can't wait to tell you all about it. Hopefully this little task can serve as reference to you all soon.

Hugo, I'm so glad you posted your troubles on this issue. I have been very critical of terms like 'companion pc' and 'Ultra Mobile' when these devices rely on another device to always be connected! I have recently posted comments on the lack of 3G connectivity over at jkOnTheRun http://jkontherun.blogs.com.
Cheers,
Steve Snell.
Hi Steve,
Here's my gripe, in this world of mobility, and with all the talk of intuitive computing, the UMPC/3G debate seems devistatingly painful. I can't imagine that Mum & Dad are gonna sit through the three days of ear-drumb tearing ranting and raving that surrounded 3G enablement via Bluetooth.
I will post my findings soon but if UMPC is going to have any chance it needs to come 3G ready, out-of-the-box!!!
Thanks Steve, I hear ya on this mate!
