There are a number of threads that deal with this, mamadou... basically, your phone has WiFi already installed, but you have to disconnect the costly Cingular GPRS connection that automatically tries to connect every time you use your browser...

You can test the WiFi connection at any Starbucks... you'll get an invitation to pay for the WiFi... but you will know that it's working!!!
I remember we had a thread about this last week, also for a 8125, but the title had to do with disconnecting the GPRS...

Sorry I don't have time to search it out for you.... :-/

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!

Hi, Mamadou... I got your email, but prefer posting the answer...
the link you need, since it's the "richest" thread on the subject, is:
http://www.pocketpcaddict.com/forums...help-tips.html

Last night I was falling asleep and couldn't help you... sorry.
Good Luck!....... and let me know how it goes!.......
Manny

Mamadou... once you disconnect the GPRS, then you shouldnt have any extra charges... but the accumulated charges you've had 'til then will show up in the next bill... yes, and it can be a surprise if you didn't plan for it.
As for screenshots, they really depend on the specific PPC model, the service provider, the ROM, and the software you might be using...

Sorry... :-/

Manny
