I currently have a Nokia 6820 with wireless web and it is Edge enabled. I'm
sick of the dumbed down WAP sites and the slow speed.

If I switch over to a Siemens SX66 PDA/Phone is it actually going to be
slower because it does not support Edge or will the phones increased
processor power make up for it?

Thanks,
Rich

GPRS is DOG SLOW. Not even an infinitely fast CPU could make up for
that.

So while I may be able to view real web sites with the SX66, it will
actually be slower than my phone?

Ughh

Can anyone comment on the Audiovox smartphone pocket pc. Does that support
Edge?

Thanks,
