Now you should have enough keywords to google some more info.

Why would you want that? The 'PalmModem' is meant for land-lines.
A palm should talk directly to a cellphone. Easier to buy an older
phone with built-in IrDA, or use a serial cable.
   I have a spare DI-27 modem, which is a small attachment for older
4V Ericsson phones (768/788/T18/etc) which would do the job.
   Forget the 5110. I've used it for data calls from a PC, but it
needs special software, such as gnokii on Linux.

Will the 9600bps of data calls be enough to sync your palm
at reasonable cost?
