Possibly but I feel no need to spend money on a new phone with alot of **** on it. I prefer to dump it into the FC

Some people might consider this overkill, but after purchasing the Reqwireless Webviewer program for my cell phone, I can actually view real webpages and not just the stripped down WAP versions of various sites. Granted the internet is nothing new to anyone, but I'm able to take Nopi Stones whereever I have coverage. Due to the limitations of hardware, it doesnt have support for a lot of multimedia plugins, but i can browse this site using the lo-fi version link at the bottom of the screen. It works for the full fi version, too, but things load faster without avatars, gay mermen pics, etc.

This post was made from my cell phone.

Josh, can you view Java applets with this? I have been looking for something mobile that I can monitor my shop with. I can broadcast the cam to webpage via a java applet...Would be neat to watch it on my phone or other mobile device (smaller than a laptop)

This isnt a new phone, its my 2 year old busted *** motorola. The web browser only cost 5.99 which is only about a dollar more than the average cell phone game. Yes, it does java, Dave. I think that would be cool to keep an eye on stuff like that. With cingular the gprs data service is only slightly faster than dialup, so streaming video is gonna suck. And with predictive text, this paragraph only took about 3 minutes to type.

My sidekick only cost me $100 I needed a new phone anyways so why not? It has a full keyboard and color screen, almost a mini PC. It is really handy when I am at school and I need to look something up quickly.
