Title: Mobile Phone Access
Post by: Fox Airways on September 26, 2008, 05:32:52 am: Hey everyone, there seems to be a lot of problems with mobile access. These will work if your phone supports JAVA (sorry most CDMA folks, and a lot of you T-Mobile US peeps). I'm sure plenty of you are already aware of these, but for those who aren't or want to try something different.

Opera Mini

I've run this on my HTC Dash (Excalibur for those of you in the EU) WM6. It works just fine. It is buggy on WM5 devices without native support for JAVA. It also works well on standard phones. I was able to get it to run on an unbranded Nokia 6230i but not a branded Nokia 5200 (t-mobile), but it would run on a Motorola V551 (Cingular). Zoom abilities. Quick displaying, and runs mostly like FireFox.

Opera Mobile

Another Opera browser for mobile devices. Works best with PDA's. Although can work on standard mobile phones.
Phone specific information can be found here http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/download/ (http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/download/)

Sky Fire

This works better for phones without native JAVA support since no emulator is needed. It ran mostly flawlessly on my Motorola Q (WM5), although the new home screen may cause issues with your device.
Will work with: Windows Mobile 5, Windows Mobile 6, Symbian Series 60 devices.

Is there any way I can get my phone to work with our wireless internet so I don't have to pay lots to go online?
