cell phone web browser, do you even use it?
 
anyone really make much use of the web browser on their cell or what? or do you have some favorites apps or anything that you use regularly?

i don't really use mine much, it bores me and sometimes i think i should mess with it on the nights when i have unlimited minutes but i get bored in a couple minutes.

not unless i have to, it takes me way too long to go on the web with my phone.

I use my email client..but not my web browser.

I got an O2 XDAII and use it for the web when i'm mobile.

I use mine alot. It's pretty cool actually. I can check my stats at some sponcers and play yahoo games. It's a newer phone and it doesnt just make the pages all text. Most pages look just as they do on the computer.

I used mine for a week before I got bored of it.

DarkJedi 05-05-2004 05:56 AM

I hate talking on the phone..hell, I dont even know where my cell phone is at the moment..let alone use it for web browsing... I'll save that chore for when I am actually sitting in front of the computers..which is way too much as it is.:glugglug

i hate all the junk they pile into cellphones these days. the camera is the only new good idea to be added lately.

i've got my laptop for everything else.

drives me nuts to see these kids stting around with their phones in their hands.. fingers moving so fast over their keys..text messaging away... The news did a report on how kids use all the new phone gadgets to cheat on exams... all we need is more incompetant fucks that cheated their way through medical school .

I like to hang out where there are no phone signals :thumbsup

Only Europeans use that stupid shit because they are too poor to own a computer.

only at the airport or when i'm really really bored and waiting

stephthegeek 05-05-2004 07:04 AM

I do occasionally. It's handy for looking up a phone number, or reading news if I'm really bored. Or posting to LiveJournal. But it's quite a pain in the butt to use.

AnalProbe 05-05-2004 07:07 AM

Only if I have my 20" screen with me.

Diabolical Cord 05-05-2004 07:15 AM

I'm behind the times. I've yet to try it. My next phone will have one, though, so I'll try it then.

GigaXXX 05-05-2004 08:25 AM

????? ??? ???????? ? ????.

If you really want to use your phone for things other than talking the sidekick from t-mobile is teh uber.

I use it to download games for my girls to play, other then that there is no use...

skillfull 05-05-2004 08:54 AM

i never use it

Project-Shadow 05-05-2004 09:29 AM

It's good for checking e-mail and stats when you're away for a while, apart from that not really.. looking at a small screen while surfing a 1280x1024 optimized page pisses me off :feels-hot

Firehorse 05-06-2004 02:53 AM

I have a couple of phones with really large screens that I use to browse the web. I really appreciate that they have a camera and video built in. This was great when we travelling with our baby daughter and we were able to email pics instantly back to family from the phones.

Kitty and I can also do face to face video calling which has been really useful when shopping and stuff. They also play mp3 and heaps of other stuff. I like having something that is compact yet has a large screen and many features on my belt, readily accessible! :thumbsup

I just use my cellphone for talking.. I dont have little asian fingers to whip out speedy text messages with the standard phone pad.

As for webbrowsing.. I leave the house to be away from the internet!

boardersweetie 05-06-2004 03:01 AM

I web browse yellowpages and maps and directions on my phone. I also text message all the fucking time, I'm pretty fast at it though.

zzgundamnzz 05-06-2004 03:03 AM

Never use the browser in my phone. It takes forever to load and then to type the url. Makes the net a very unhappy place...

fuzebox 05-06-2004 03:05 AM

I use my phone's WAP browser daily... Phonebooks are indespensible, and I like to grab news headlines, sports scores, and stock quotes when I'm out and have a minute to spare in a lineup or something.

Also works great for checking movie times while you're at a restaurant.
