Hi Euan,

Yes you can buy a compact flash modem for your Dell. We used one on our last visit and it worked quite well. Unfortunately the ISP we used has go out of business and we now have a PC with internet access at our villa that we and our guests use. I found my ISP by searching on the net for "Cheap internet access". Quite alot offer a service for PDA use and a free local call number.

I have to say it was a bit of a bind trying to answer e-mails on the PDA with just the on screen keyboard. You really have to keep your e-mails short, but the system does work.

Good Luck.

Jeff
