I like using my cellphone as a pager when I get email and I've done things like send myself an email from my phone when I'm in Barnes and Noble in order for my script to send me back an SMS detailing the average review of the book and it's price on Amazon and this to me is a good way to utilitize my phone but I simply do not need to read email or at least large messages with it. With the Tibook and a bluetooth adapter or IR port the T68i can be used to provide an internet connection and that's pretty neat albiet still a tad expensive though. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Reburn" <bill at pacificcoast.net> To: "PowerBook G4 Titanium List" <Titanium at lists.themacintoshguy.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 8:52 PM Subject: Re: [Ti] Anyone using a Sony Ericsson T200? > I completely agree - which is why I am saving $500-$600 and going with a > phone without those capabilities (colour screen, email web browsing on a > phone is IMHO an absolutle waste of time) - I really laugh when I see people > "reading" their cell phones.
