Re: Just another...

In order to tether his his KRZR to his computer and use it as a modem, he must download an application from Bell called Mobile Connect.

Here is the link for Mobile Connect.

»www.businessonthego1.com/english···l_mc.asp

Notice that you cannot download the program without the legal stuff popping up.

And here's the important part:

"Note to subscribers of Bell Mobility's Unlimited Mobile BrowserTM: in tethering your Bell Mobility handheld device to your PC or other device, data transmission does NOT occur through the Unlimited Mobile Browser. You will be charged for data transport usage in addition to the monthly charge for the browser.

Examples of data transport charges using a rate of $12 per megabyte: send an email = $0.15; download a web page = $4.50; download a song = $123.00. Note that these examples do not include all data transmission associated with these activities, which can vary depending on user activity, software application behaviour, communications protocol and network conditions.

We encourage you to minimize these charges by subscribing to an appropriate data plan. Visit »www.businessonthego1.com/english···cing.asp or call 1 866 235-5249 (1 866 BELL-BIZ) to subscribe. Be sure to check the data usage counter on your screen to keep track of your data usage.

By clicking "I accept" below you acknowledge that you are over the age of eighteen years and are liable for and agree to pay these charges for data transport services."

If that's the case (about the contract being in bold, plus the click through notice on the installer) he should pay the $3700 and be happy about it.
