    hi..

    Just suggestion for a mobile board as they are now a HUGE market, with 3g now becoming reality. I think a mobile section would do well, as i have seen a lot of mobile question posts popin up. Also with phone moddin being so easy i think people shld b able to know how easy it is and how to do self repairs which the stores will charge you around 70-80% profit margins on .. NO JOKE!

    I know this guy who wld b good @ mod'in the board ;) who wld b happy 2 post market news, new develpments etc, i can repair almost all phones so i can help ppl with faults/problems solve them, also have a good friend who is a partner in a phone shop so i get all the inside info and what deals r the best etc etc ...

    anywayz jus a suggestion .. let the flamming begin :)

    Later

    At first I though you were going to suggest a Bit-Tech WAP site, which would be kinda cool, even though I never use WAP.

    yeah.. think the forum is so busy that a bit-tech WAP site wld b VERY slow... but most new mobile phones fully understand HTML, my Nokia6600 surfs the net jus like my PC, so the need to convert sites to WAP is decreasing...plus costs of wap hosts is stupidly high for what you get, as the demand isnt as high as web hosting so less competition to drive the prices down....

    While this is true, it's a right arse to see stuff on my MPx, much better when it's been formatted to the size of the screen...

    And yeh it would be cool, I'm always on the lookout for the new ones and such, mainly of the smartphone variety but the other types ain't too bad i guess......

    For the time being,.... www.coolsmartphone.com

    It would be good to have a PDA forum as well, so maybe a Mobile Devices forums which could cover mobile phones and PDA's. The line between them is blurring more and more these days though.

    Internet explorer on my ipaq 5555 renders this site quite well, only part thats not, is the post bit.
    That takes a bit of 2d scrolling skill
