Vermont and T-Mobile Dash Roaming
I am here. On “poor farm road” in the way north of Vermont. But I have no less than _3_ working internet connections - my T-Mobile Dash is roaming on Cingular giving me EDGE, my Sprint EVDO card isn’t EVDOing but it is supplying a slow connection of some sort, and there’s a random “linksys” wifi signal here. Surprising. That is not my dog.
I thought I was going to write like crazy this last week, but I was mainly tired and groggy and felt like sleeping.
So my Dash is roaming on Cingular. My data is unlimited, and there are no extra fees to use it when roaming unless I’m out of the country, yet whenever I check my mail I get an alert telling me:
Alert
You are currently roaming. Synchronizing may result in additional charges.
I started to look into turning this off in the registry, but I keep getting distracted. Also when I receive an MMS, it alerts me that I have a pending message and then says:
Additional charges may apply while roaming.
New MMS pending
while giving you the option to Download, Postpone, or Reject. Wow, also very annoying. I’m going to pick up on that one tomorrow.

From the Start Menu..
Click on Programs…ActiveSync…Menu…Schedule…
Besure the “use above settings when roaming” box is checked. Choose “OK” and exit out.
SOLVES PROBLEM!!!
