Blackberrys inbuilt browser isn't great. Try downloading opera.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

Tbh it was try to move a tiny arrow around that did me in.oh and trying relentlessly to push the screen to open it ala iPhone. Really like the phone but I am buying mainly for www so its gotta be useable.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

Tedious and slow. BE is really awkward on it.

BTW I find the sound reproduction on it terrible, I'm assuming that it's my electronic ear but is it the BB?

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

Yes, even BE's mobile site is slow on my BB. If browsing is that important to the OP, they might want to think about another smart phone.

As for sound quality, for calls mine is ok, but I've never used it for playing mp3's so I don't know if it's any good or not.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

For calls mine is better than the land line, but the MP3 doodah sounds very tinny.

Have look on YouTube for bb os 6.0 the browser is much improved,not sure when it's due out though!

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

Love my BB for texting and emailing, but internet browsing is crap! It's very slow and the screen is too small. Am looking forward to upgrading to a Iphone in the near future.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

I struggle with browsing on my BB too. Tiny screen, difficult to navigate and seems slow. It's even worse now I have an iPod touch and have got use to that.

Cheers tuppence

You have answered my query as you've used both the bb & iPod touch which I'm writing this on
iPhone it is I reckon.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

The downside of the iphone is that it really is rubbish for anything that requires typing when compared to the bb.

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

I just saw something called an Ipad... that thing looks cool for internet and typing... the iphone is way too small...

the iPad is basically a big iPod touch which albeit I think the touch is great as a pick up and go browser isn't great as your only www source. The iPad nor any iPod doesn't show flash media therefore a lot of the www eg BBC. Site video links cannot open. Also the memory is small compares to a pc. If you wanted small you'd be better off with a 10". Netbook which IMHO. Ofer more for a lot less. The iPad is a great gadget I want one but not sure what i'd useit for as o have an iPod. Touch and soon an iPhone.btw reply written on iPod touch

Re: Internet on blackberry comments from users
 

I have use the bb for a couple of years and found surfing a nightmare and only really used it for emails. Now got an iPhone and would never go back. Touch screen qwerty keypad is great and surfing is a breeze. Only issue is lack of flash player for some websites
