Why, when my cell phone has internet capabilities, does it not browse the same way the computer does... isn't it a mini-computer???

I've always wondered that too. I always feel like even though it's a mini computer...its a really old, slow computer. Nothing ever looks the same on my phone and it takes so long for things to happen. Even if I'm just using it to talk on AIM or something. Personally using a phone for internet purposes has never really been all that appealing to me.
Hey Micquel, I don't know what kind of phone you have, but I have a regular old nokia camera phone on t-mobile, and I discovered that if I go to T-zones and go to cnn or espn or something like that, and then scroll to the very top of the page and hit the left soft key, I get the option of going to a url, and so while some pages are too large to load, most major sites seem to have something just for phones and somehow know that's what I am. I don't know if it'll work for you, but I got to google and nfl.com that way (I only just discovered it because of your muddiest point). It doesn't seem that slow to me, but lilacsnlilys is right when she says that it looks weird sometimes. (And tiny pictures suck.)
I have been working in an academic library for three years now and celebrate when the students come back to campus. I love the fast-paced environment and their (most of them) enthusiasm for the changes every day brings! I have two pups (Newfoundland and a Cavalier King Charles). My "boys" and I love exploring state parks and walks pretty much anywhere!!! I think I'm pretty fun and I love excitement that makes me laugh!!!
