Must resist... No... Can't... A.org works great on the iPhone... In fact I'm doing it now :-)

[adolescent]

A combination of Text Size = Small and Display Mode = Just-Fit works pretty well for Amiga.org.  (The banner graphic is a bit messed up but the everything works well.)

The real question is why it took you forever to figure out how!?   :lol:

[dfreniche]

I read A.org very often in my shiny new HP iPaq HW6915 :-). It works very well (both A.org and my last tech-toy)

I have a Nokia E61i and when im too lazy to go upstairs to my hobbyroom i use it to browse a.org and it works fine.

[motorollin]

amiga.org also looks pretty good on a Nintendo DS :-)

(plus a second vote for the iPhone ;-) )

@ adolescent.

it seems lots of people have had trouble with wifi dongles even when are are an official product ie. wifi max, just google! anyway i got a cheapie £7 ebay job and no instructions. i found some pages on the setup but they were mostly for wifi routers. i got by on doing the manual setup on psp rather than the automatic job the psp was doing.
i would like to get this working with linux and not xp so if anyone has any tips... on pc you had to setp ics. set the dongle up to ap by shear guess work. there is linux software for it but i'm a bit of a newbie at that, it ain't a nice deb that xandros will self install!
anyways i was putting in my router ip not the wifi card but realised that after a good nights sleep.
i found the just fit option but it still can't display all the objects on some web sites and runs out of memory? it does like a.org but not pcworld.  :lol: i've set it to conserve memory... i'm not sure how much i'll really use it for web surfing unless i can stream the movies at movieflix.com luckily i have a slim with cfw. although i'm still new to it.

i prefer the gp2x apart from it's joystick and where they located the power supply. definately better homebrew. and you don't have to convert my movies as i get them from http://www.publicdomaintorrents.com/ using the pocket pc files for gp2x as the others are slooow to download when no ones around.

by the way does anyone do phone browsing for free yet? how much does it cost?

Do you mean unlimited data on your mobile? If so, T-Mobile do this for (I think) £7 per month on top of your contract - it's the Web 'n' Walk add-on. Also, the iPhone on O2 includes unlimited data, but I don't know whether O2 provide this with other contracts.

I pay £35 per month... all internet (i.e. Data) transactions are unlimited with that.

@monami

I use a router, not a wifi dongle so I can't help there.  All I had to do is enter my SSID and WEP key on the PSP and I was done.  (This was a couple of years ago now...)

Wifi support on Linux is a known weak point. Some distros are better than others, which one are you running? Depending on the make and model of your wifi card you will either need ndiswrapper or madwifi. Never used madwifi, but ndiswrapper is a pain in the arse!

Bloodline, it's not your fault, but it really annoys me when companies try to sell internet plans (broadband or mobile) as unlimited when they are anything but. You've got an iPhone right?

Better than other Internet Usage Terms and Conditions I've read, but certainly not unlimited.

Um... Well I've used my iPhone for a Month... and managed to rack up 700Megs downloaded... That's using the Phone heavily! I'm very happy with that... I'd find it hard to need more...

That's certainly better than the data plans of the past. However, it's more due to the principal of the thing. If companies are selling something as unlimited usage they shouldn't be putting limits on usage. I would expect to be able to download torrents for example if I'm paying £35 a month.

You're happy with your data plan, that's fine, as I said my main gripe is selling it as unlimited.

I'd have a hard time trying to install a torrent client on my iPhone.... Moto might have better luck... but I'm at maximum capacity on the internal memory so I'd have nothing to download too... :-)

I don't think there is a torrent download widget for the iPhone out yet. Maybe someone will convert this one:

Maximum capacity on internal memory? Are you running multiple programs at once?
