I'd like to know that, too. I've been considering buying a new phone for this myself. Wouldn't want to waste my precious time on the bus ride to and from school looking out the window at the beautiful scenery.

Wouldn't the network charges from your mobile service provider make this extremely -EV?

I'm another one that is curious about this. Anybody have any details? I would go check the local phone shop, but i've been too busy playing poker [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I know you can purchase blocks of network time through your provider at a discounted rate. The rates without purchasing a package are pricey. My mobile service provider charges 5 cents per kilobyte of use (this is without the discount package).

I don't connect to the network often enough to make the "block" purchase worthwhile. However I imagine playing poker on your mobile phone without some sort of discount on the network time could get VERY expensive.

$5.00? Is that all?

Interesting. I was under the impression it would be more costly.
