What a sh*ite! Mobiles are far too slow for downloads.

There will be new moblile systems who will be able to
get mutch more bandwith than
current systems soon..

And why the hell would you surf the net with a mobile's LCD screen? If the mobile connects to the PSX the TV would be a better way to view the homepages...

But I don't think the mobile connection is going to be used for surfing mainly, multiplayer games is more likely..
