As I can figure from www.palmone.com/us/support/helpnotes/gsmfaq.html
PalmV Modem + Nokia5110 will get me the same functionality as PalmV
Modem used with
land line. For example, I will be able to HotSync just the same way I
do it now with the modem itself (using the same standard Palm
software). I dont quite understand your point, why Ericsson with DI-27
modem could be better solution?
BTW, PalmV Modem is assumed to work at 33.6k (may be not in mobile
setup though), and I can still connect my PalmV Modem to Ericsson
768/788 using the same 'GPS Upgrade Kit'.

As gsmfaq (link above) states, GPS Upgrade Kit consists of a cable to
connect PalmV Modem to a mobile phone and a so-called Modem Utility
program that will
update firmware in the modem to work with any particular phone.
