Tethered Modem (3.0)
Although the LG Prada supports being used as a tethered modem we ran into some trouble using it as such. Spefically we were unable to use it as a USB dial up modem due to the lack of a driver. We were able to set the Prada up to be used as a Bluetooth modem, and this should work on both Macs and PCs. As an unlocked phone you will need to look up the specific dial out numbers and login information to use with your carrier before you can set it up to be used as a modem.

Radio (0.0)
Like many modern phones (at least those that aren't sold in the U.S.) the Prada includes an FM Radio. The radio can only be used when the headset is attached to act as an antenna. We found that it worked fairly well, although reception was limited in some areas, especially inside large building. It was at least as good as the FM Radio we have seen on Series 60 phones like the Nokia N95.
