Acabei de tirar do forno um serviço que permite fazer exactamente isto. Ler feeds em qualquer lado. Tenho um 6630 como o teu e tenho usado isto bastante nos últimos tempos. Sei que referiste aí o bloglines mobile como sendo lento... mas pode ser que este te agrade. Não sei, de qualquer forma investiga... <a href="http://mobifeeds.net" rel="nofollow">http://mobifeeds.net</a> Finalmente já posso falar sobre isto… Acabei de tirar do forno um serviço que permite fazer exactamente isto.

Normal cell phones, on the other hand, have the numeric keys, and the T9 dictionaries, which makes it much better. PDAs have styluses and character recognition - again, much better. As to using Squirrelmail and a browser, from my experience it's much slower, and wastes much more bandwidth, than an IMAP client - not to mention that you have to always be online. With Profimail on my 6630, I can update the mailbox, and then read mail while offline. Unless I find a PDA with Wi-fi for less than 400 euros, I'm inclined to buy the E61... or simply buy nothing for the time being. :) But thanks for the tip...

There's probably one for the PSP, too... but without either a keyboard (or even a keypad like a mobile phone) and or a stylus, I don't think it'll be easy to enter addresses - much less write notes - on the PSP. I intend to buy the DS browser, but it won't satisfy me here, either. No email client, for instance. Besides, both of those have another problem: no GSM / GPRS / 3G. I'd like to use my Wi-fi network when at home (which I can't currently do with the 6630), but I'd also like to be able to connect to the mobile network when I'm somewhere else (which the 6630 does, of course). Marco: the Qtek looks nice; it's a Windows Mobile phone. It seems to satisfy my requirements, but I also agree with you: 600 euros is <b>way</b> too much. I could buy an E61 for about 430 euros, which would <i>also</i> have (apparently) everything I need. So, any more thoughts? ;) Ricardo: hey, I hadn’t thought of that one. :) It has a great screen; however, a browser is not enough, I also need a decent IMAP client.

I think it's better to wait for new phone decrease their price. They are crazy, pay 600 euros for a simple phone.

Oh and by the way, the DS Opera Browser was launched on Europe last friday, but I'm buying it next month so for now I can't recommend it.
