i heard of a woman one time that was living really well and cheap because she would get all of that(where you could text and have unlimited internet on your phone)and she didn't have to pay a internet bill and a regular house phone bill and all she had to pay was for her cable, electricity,water and that was just about all and she said that it saved her a lot and i was thinking about that, and i was thinking of trying that and i was just wondering if anyone else uses the internet on their cell phone and how fast it is and all of that...thanks for taking the time out of your day to read and review my discussion and i hope that you will answer, i hope that you had a great day today and i hope that your night is going to be a great night as well, once again thanks for taking the time!

Yes I have used the internet on the cell phone it is just as fast as a dialup pretty fast if you ask me. I know that it also depends on your carrier to which speeds you get. Hope that this will help you out!

using internet on your cellphone is pretty convenient. you can bring internet anywhere you go so i guess you can check your emails or even mylot anywhere and anytime. it's fairly fast if you're using a 3g phone.

I have never used the Internet on my phone because my cell phone doesn't support it. It is an old one, a Nokia 1100. I prefer to use the Internet on the computer rather than on the cell phone because I think that it will be probably much more slowly than a computer. But if later I get a better one renewed or updated, maybe I will give it a try to confirm what I have already thought about the surfing speed. Practice is the best policy. Good day to you, jhl.

I do use internet on my phone sometimes, specially when I'm away from home. I can surf on it. You must have enough load to access the internet on the phone. Good day!

Is it real?? You don need to pay for bills and anything?? There's no free lunch in this world as i can say, you need certain things to exchange for something and some more if the authority finds out bout this she will get caught for something illegal that she committed. I always goes with the safer way, obey the laws and watch the steps where I'm going.

I would if only my cellphone have wifi support. But it only has 3g and 3g here isn't cheap. Now if you have wifi capable cellphone then you can just go in an open hotspot and connect free to the internet. You can also make unlimited calls if your phone has voip capabilities. Sometimes it's not free but still cheaper than ordinary calls.

I have tried it once and found it quite cumbersome. So I stopped trying.

I have never did this but my eldest daughter used the internet with her cell phone . It was costing her quite a bit to do this as it was taking all her minutes from her because she had a pay per use phone . I can't see how this is something I would use or enjoy just for the fact that I would find it hard to use a phone to get online . As it is I find it hard enough to get around my cell phone but for anyone who is into using their cell phones all the time , it might be something for them to look into . I have never heard of this but it is an intersting thought that I know a few of my friends might find interesting .

i use internet in my mobile phone only on extreme cases of boredom.. if you're stuck in a place with no internet connection.. connecting via gprs/edge is very costly.. and sometimes made more costly if you are disconnected frequently.. this is because in our area you pay a minimum amount per connection.. sucks..

I have tried the internet on my cell, but it is one dollar per day or so much data and it is tiresome and slow. I would not do it. I am not sure just how much money can she saved that way, the cell co that has, or anything about your friend, but if she says she saves money to live the good life it must be truth.

i use internet in the cell phone when i am outside and travelling. i mostly use it sports results and updates. it is very slow but it helps sometimes in need. i have even seen my university results using cell phone. though it is costly sometimes since the data transfer is counted here and not the time.
