BlackBerry Question

[Rage9]

Blackberrys default browser sucks, you have to install something like Opera Mini

the ipod has an actual full featured browser just like a desktop, really.

The BlackBerry doesn't? Can you install one?

Would that consist as a "full featured browser" with the ability to view YSM/AdCenter etc?

I would say with opera you could yes

They have a demo that you can try, should answer your question: Opera Mini | The most popular mobile phone browser in the world

Can anyone login to MSN Adcenter with their 3G iPhone? I for some reason can't.

+1 for Palm Pre. That thing looks like the best invention since sliced jesus if it can live up to the hype.

In the meantime, I'm quite happy with my HTC TytnII with a tweaked ROM to handle memory and multitasking better.

Shit, man... I can't get MSN Adcenter to work properly in any browser except IE. No surprise it doesn't load on my iPhone!

OP: The BlackBerry Bold is a fantastic phone as is the iPhone. You'll have to use both for a bit to determine if you can handle living without the keyboard though.

I have an iPhone and I after a loooong time typing I've gotten to the point where I can bang out emails quickly with both of my giant thumbs in action. Took a bit though!

Thanks all. I'm thinking the BlackBerry over the iPhone because the touch screen gets annoying and extremely dirty on my iPod and I'm a super neat freak.

So does the Blackberry's Opera Mini actually let you get in and deal with javascript interfaces (Facebook, etc)? I tried Opera Mini for Windows mobile and PalmOS and was never very impressed hence why I use Windows Mobile/Remote Desktop now. (I hate Windows Mobile's usability but it does what I need it to generally).

When is the Palm Pre due out? I hope it's available with Verizon.

I'm on the storm and my major gripe i not being able to login to adwords - I believe it is the same for the bold.

No specific date yet. Sometime in the first half of 2009.

I'm definately a BOLD fan. Had it about a month and my only complaints are the sounds quality is meh, not sure if that's at&t or the bb itself. Also, I came from a clam shell bad boy and well it doesn't let me disconnect EVER. But all in all I'm happy with it.

Keyboard == MUST

Thanks all for insight. I'll probably be buying my Bold sometime in Feb

Blackberry = No Wireless = crap.

5 out of 7 BlackBerry models currently displayed on the T-Mobile website have wireless/wifi. Only the 2 oldest models offered, the 8100 and 8700 do not have it.

Thanks for the tip. I can't believe how smoothly it works. Blows Mobile IE away. Thanks!!
