Yes. All that's generally needed is for the phone to be visible as a modem (in the case of the 6600 it means infrared/IrDA or Bluetooth) and then dial *99#.

The 6600 modem driver configuration files you can find on http://www.nokia.com/phones/6600

You can also download the "One Touch Access" app from http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite (it makes it even easier/simpler to connect the PC via the phone to the GPRS network).

The PC Suite version 6.5 stated in the above URL does not support the 6600. It says that there is spcific PC Suite exclusively for the 6600 which is available for download which I already have with got with my phone CD which does not have anything for sharing GPRS connection. :frown:
