tried it... no dice
Authored by: ragnar on Mar 07, '02 11:23:23AM

I own a Nokia 8290 and a Powerbooke G3, which has IR support and I'm using 10.1.3. I saw this hint elsewhere and tried it, but to no avail. It dials the phone (which is an improvement over the default script) but it then comes back telling me that it couldn't detect a dial tone.

Can anyone think of anything I might be missing? I have the IR turned on with the phone and G3 and the IR status seems to ping just fine. I would really like to make this work.
