SankysVR6 1 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 My phone is due for an upgrade soon and was wondering what type of phone i need to access this website from the phone. Does it just has to be WAP phone or do i need any special fetures.Not that clued up with the mobile technology and WAP browsingi was thinking of the Nokia 6230i? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 A phone with internet explorer on (I.E: SPV/M500/I-MATE etc....I will attempt to write a wap version of the website, but thats quite a way off yet. the alternative solution would be to use an RSS reader to kee upto date with posts on the site, the only downsite to this would be that you cant post your own replies.Pete Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 I used my old P800 to surf the web/this site without any problems.My Nokia 7610 also surfs ok.Any symbian based phone should be suitable because you should be able to download the opera browser which is perfect for surfing the web on mobiles.try series 60 phones and series 90 phones and UIQ phones for reviews of phones which will be able to download opera browser easiest.I tend to turn off the images on my phone to save on time and gprs charges.

Nerih 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Report Share Posted July 2, 2005 i access vr6oc on my hx7700 ipaq, okay, with no problems, i guess its becuase its IE running html in native rather then WAP (which is old and crap lol) . get a pda phone if u wanna browse net on the mobile.

VR6Rich 3 Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Is it just me or is the Opera web site having problems? Trying to download the browser for my phone but it keeps timing out?Does anybody know if it works for the Nokia 6680 as its not listed? Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 I don't see why it won't work on the 6680, they work on the same operating system as 6630 etc.Are you downloading to your pc then installing or downloading straight to the phone? Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rich 3 Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 On my PC. Just found the compatibility page and the 6680 version is 'coming soon'. Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Ahhh, I'm surprised it doesn't work, have you managed to actually download it yet?I managed to download it last night ok, it was a very small file, took about a second. Link to post Share on other sites
