Hi Michael! Really! What sort of mobile phone is up to the job? I have a Nokia "shorty" which I have used mainly as a phone. It is a good phone, also tells the time and date, retiring my expensive and trouble prone watch. http://www.virginmobileusa.com/phones/phoneDetail.do?skuId=VM2125 The docs say somewhere that there is a downloadable web browser for it, but since my plan is $15 minimum every three months used up at 18 cents per minute, I haven't looked into it. Unclear what could be browsed on a 1 1/4" screen, anyway. What phone do you recommend for data? -- Regards, Pete http://pete-theisen.com/ http://elect-pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
