1. Don't hijack other threads, because it unpolite and also you are 
likely to not receive answers, because one might think that you answer 
belongs to the thread.

2. It seems that nobody was yet interested in using RAS on Windows. You 
can try to use the RAS unit from WinCE which is located in 
%fpc%\packages\winceunits\src\. You need to change the "{$calling 
cdecl}" to "{$calling stdcall}" and then this "should" be enough to 
compile on Windows. Maybe you need to compare the used functions to the 
ones on MSDN to see whether they are the same for WinCE and Win32.

3. Regarding GPRS. I might have a solution for that, but currently I 
don't have access to the code; you'd need to wait till this evening, 
then I can check whether that could help you.
