IE on my Dash?

How is this different from me just running IE on my T-Mobile Dash? I guess it would be cool to run opera or something else but the IE suits me just ifne I can get to what I need... Slowly

This doesnt appear to apply to you, or anyone else with a smartphone for that matter. This looks to be geared towards those users with the very basic phones that only allow "T-Zones" internet access. I cant honestly say that I would use one of those handsets, however there are likely millions of subs that fall into that category. This is good news for t-mobile customers that have lower cost handsets, as it will greatly enhance their usability.

UK or U.S.?

Or both has this T-mobile intranet thing?

This android thing is going to be another bust for 2008. Add it to the list of recent flops: Femtocell, WIMAX, Intel Viiv, BPL, Vista, Mac Air, etc...

Pricing Plan?

I think that will involve some kind of data plan, or charge per kB. I don't think they will actually allow anybody to just browse the internet. I currently use Opera Mini and pay data plan for painfully slow and laggy net.

How do you know it's 3G? Via the 3 green lights on the phone?

It looks like the photo was taken on JAN 1 2000.

you mean like i've been already doing?

I must be living in a completely alternative universe, because I've been browsing the full Web on TMO for upwards of three years now.

Maybe I just buy the right phones and plans -- you know, the ones that provide what I want?

Confused...

I tested the TM506 today in Chicago. Opera mini works running at 3G speeds. It was pretty nice.

Re: IE on my Dash?

I already unlocked my Nokia 6133 that I got through T-Mobile. It was easy to do once I got hold of the upgrade file from Nokia directly.

Re: _KOFF!_

It is indeed a sony ericsson tm506, on Tmo running with a full hsdpa 3g speed....obviously you can see it running opera mini.

That isn't a crt, it's a toshiba x205 sli2 laptop.

It's not jan 1 2000 because this thread didn't exist then....and you CAN see the lappy's screen in the background ....right ?

I intentionally leave my digicam on default time and date, I only change it to correct when I need to record something specific.

BTW, it's not a beta phone, they have been on the market for a few weeks.
I own it.
