ive got the answer, go out and buy a serial to usb adapter, cost you a less than a tenner, but you can connect it via usb!

well, i was really wondering, because samsung only make serial data cable, even the program like Easy GPRS uses com1 which is serial port. But for some reason, mine doesn't detected it, it said to turn off your computer and hook up the wire with both PC and phone shut off, then turn them on. But that doesnt' work. =P
