Do you want to use the Pocket PC without connecting to your provider, by sharing the same connection as your laptop? If this is the case then you could try using a Wi-Fi SD card and connect to your Wireless network via an an Access Point or directly to your laptop's wireless card on an Ad-Hoc network.

You can use the USB cable. When the Pocket PC is connected to ActiveSync you should be able to access the Internet.

Make sure you have ActiveSync options configured like this:
