06/10  T-Mobile's Web 'n' Walk starts in the UK too

T-Mobile hopes to win back customers with fast web service
T-Mobile's Web 'n' Walk service, which will be backed by a multimillion pound TV advertising campaign this month, allows customers to access the general internet through a portal that is headed with the Google search engine. They will be able to surf the web, send email and carry out e-commerce transactions exactly as if they were sat in front of a computer.

"It's the open, high-speed internet the way you already know it, the way it works on your PC, just mobile," explained Mr Obermann, who predicted that over time mobile internet usage could overthrow the traditional access model of a PC connected to a fixed line phone socket.

Pressemitteilung vom 29. Juni 2005
So bietet die neue Option Data 30 zum monatlichen Preis von nur zehn Euro ein monatliches Inklusivvolumen für die mobile Datenübertragung von 30 Megabyte statt wie bisher zehn Megabyte. Nach Verbrauch des Inklusivvolumens wird ein Preis von 1,90 Euro pro MB berechnet. Das Extra-Bonbon für diejenigen, die mit dem Sidekick II mobil im Internet surfen: Bis Ende des Jahres wird bei der Option Sidekick Data die Begrenzung auf 30 MB aufgehoben. Somit steht für den monatlichen Optionspreis von 15 Euro innerhalb des Netzes von T-Mobile Deutschland eine echte Flatrate zur Verfügung.

Hi Robert,
Can you browse the whole internet with your sprint phone? Any limitations? Any problems (large image files etc.)?

What do you pay for your internet access with your Sprint phone?

And have you tried out this site's mobile version at http://mobile.kaywa.com/mobile? Does it work on your sprint phone?
