Anyone:
Besides my T68, I have a motorola GSM phone with an openwave/ phone.com wap browser.
One of the differences I notice between the browsers is that with the motorola browser most links on wap pages are preceeded by a number. Pushing this number on the phone keypad navigates directly to the link, which is much faster than scrolling.
When accessing the SAME pages on my T68, however, the links are just preceeded by a "::". I have to scroll to them and then push yes or hit the joystick.
It's a lot faster to tap in the numbers, especially if you get into the habit of checking pages frequently (but don't want to/ cant ) make a bookmark for them.
Does anyone know whether this feature is specific to motorola phones or phone.com/ openwave browsers?
Does anyone know if this feature will be available in the wap 2.0 browser that we're supposed to be getting?
Also, a general comment: Hopefully the wap 2.0 browser will be able to access more sites. There are some sites only accessible on my motorola phone (citysearch.com), and some only accessible on my T68 (mobile.yahoo.com/home).
It seems that many wap sites are only designed to be built with certain wap browsers. Hopefully the wap 2.0 browser will be compatable with MORE (as opposed to fewer) wap sites than the 1.2.1 browser is. |
