    What is the point?!

    Just got a new mobile and it has internet capability so gave it a try, got on this site and it's all but unusable - not the fault of this site, just trying to use a mobile to go online.....screen isn't big enough - probably ok I guess on a Blackberry but then who wants to carry something that size around with them!

    RE: Depends on the phones browser as well

    Just got a Sony Ericsson W330i - don't see how the browser could be any better given the limitations of the screen.

    Nice phone though...apart from the Robbie Williams stuff that came with it that it took me ages to switch off, and I can't delete the stuff.....so now on my phone's MP3 I have some Robbie fecking Williams! Not that I'll bother using the MP3 anyway.

    It may be a better resolution screen on the N73 but the broswer has some really nifty zoom and navigation features for viewing large size websites on a smaller screen. I tried the equivalent sony ericcson before this one (k800 i think) and it wasn't a patch on it for browsing the web.
