mobile web whats the best.
 

what is the best way/ device to get the 'web' anywhere on the go, O2 xda's ?

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

I have tried web acces on a number of devices..

On a normal mobile quite often you won't be able to view anything complex.

On a xda 2 you'll be able to view just about anything (exept possibly loggin into internet banking).

I have tried a xda mini s (whicj is on ebay now) but I'm never away from a computer long enough to warrant having it.

well its not for me, a mate wanted to know, he wants to view stock markets online.

so i need a device that can browse the web thats simaler to a mobile phone, it can be a xda2 like device.

and how to get it on the web.

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

You can get the xda2 online via gprs at a quite respectable speed. The xda mini s has wifi b/g as well.

yep, ive used xda once, bopdude let me use in a hotel room at a forum meet :p:

the xda2 exec looks drool worthy, shame about the 4 hour talk time :erm:

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

whats wrong with 4 hour talk time?

It comes with a mini usb lead that can charge it off any pc.

Go to a o2 shop had ask for a demo on the xda2, xda minis and the exec as they are all different beasts.

My preference is the xda2 still.

Download Opera for mobiles and slap it on his phone?

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

his phone is a old, old nokia with a black and white screen :erm:

its a bit low, how long does the battery last on your xda 2 on average if you use the mobile web feature alot

cool feature, wonder if its in the exec version ?

yep will do, thanks for your advice, anymore will be appreciated by anyone!

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

Well can't add much to the above, still using the same XDA II here Kronas, due an upgrade soon, ( again ) had the IIi but it didn't like TT5 so swapped it back, the exec is 3G so AFAIK will access the web about 8 times faster than my present
model ( waits to be corrected, again )
As for internet banking, yep, I can access mine no problem, as HM says, go and ask for a demo :tu:
HTH

EDIT: just found a decent review, although dated, sheds a bit of light on battery / talk times .. HTH

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

thanks guys one more question, can you take advantage of the 3G web browsing on the O2 network ?

Re: mobile web whats the best.
 

Well, O2 sell 3G phones & make specific mention of 3G on their website, so I'd guess you can.


I recently got an XDA Mini S from O2. Not 3G, but a great little PDA/phone. Don't make much use of the (slower than 3G) GPRS, as I use the WiFi.
