That depends on the phone, your cellular plan, and the method of
connecting the phone to the computer. Not to mention if all of the above
is linux compatible. For instance, my Sprint phone (CDMA not GPRS) does
work with linux to provide ~14 KB/sec transfer rates via a USB cable. No
special software required beyond the normal pppd. You will probably need
to ask your provider what information (number to dial,
username/password) and or software is needed for Windows to do what you
need, then see if linux can provide alternatives. If they need a custom
dialer program, you might be out of luck. If it uses the normal Windows
dial-up networking, you should be able to make it work.
