blackberry/treo

hey gugsie...have you tried your treo browser yet??

makes posting from the terlit much handier than using a laptop resting on your bare knees. Nad really needs one of these for when he's shitting in his tub.

I have a Dell Axim that is hooked through my home network that I use on the shitter occasionally.

I like the websites that recognize that you're using a mobile device and they make it fit the screen better.

This is my first ever blackberry post to UM.

Never tried one of those, nate

Takes a while for these pages to load tho

 

[lizard]

this is so fucking awesome I could punch myself

 

[lizard]

shit, I just realized I can now join the ranks of PUI posters

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

nope, I haven't

for starters, I don't have much cellular signal in my home, so really, many of the treo's capabilities will be lost on me while I'm here. Not to mention the transfer rate is still pretty durned slow, so uh, yeah.

I wish Google would hurry up and just make the whole US wireless.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Google, ha. Nice quarterly earnings they posted. Stock dropped $34 in a single day, lol

I got a ButtBerry yesterday! It's way nicer than that stupid LG "The V" playtoy phone I had before. It's not even sync'd up to my network yet and I already dropped it in a parking lot, producing some very metal asphalt rash.

Dude are you configed for desktop or server because if for server you need to leave it usb connected to the pc before it is completely synched for a couple three hours

 

[NAD]

... <-- dots of ignorance

I think the server, but that's cool because I'll just sync it on a day when I'll be around the office anyhow. I guess not Monday since I'll be in San Dieger all god damn day!

The only thing I don't like about it is it has no camera, but I guess I need to get a decent one anyhow. Maybe I can convince work to pay for it... <-- dots of possibility

Does anyone know if you can connect to an SSL site securely with these phones? I'd like to keep an eye on our checking and credit card accounts while in Mexico. However, I don't want to do so if the communications link is insecure.

I would guess they would have to be SSL, but I'm not sure.

Anyhow, I just took a dump and tried to get to ultimatemetal.com on my ButtBerry but it didn't work. So I did a google image search for Lauren Michelle Hill and viola! Naked chicks on the can. Cool.

good question, not sure though Greg

My only experience with that was when HQ nixed the treo and chose Booberry for security concerns but that was a couple of years ago...I can,t imagine they're not secure now

either it works or it doesn't. afaik you won't be able to set up an "insecure" connection; either it uses SSL or it doesn't work at all

 

[lizard]

I'm at kroger then off to get some IPA

You're almost certainly right, and that's kind of what I assumed. However, I prefer to err on the side of complete and total paranoia when it comes to such things.
