I did that, but their instructions were wrong!  On their website, there are
a dozen or so instructions on setting up GPRS on the phone and notebook/pda,
but many of them give different settings.  Anyhow, I have finally managed to
work it out.  The trick was that where Optus tells you to use
"int.optus.net.au" or "internet.optus.net.au" as your addtional setting (for
access point), you need to just use "internet" use.
