	I can't use either handset I now have to connect as is to the internet
via bluetooth. I didn't buy a usb cable but I might try one of the many
usb/mini usb I have laying around. I can't even dial up my isp and use
that with either handset. I'm going to ask my guy at the Verizon store
how and if I can connect. Gee I miss my old phone.........
