I know what you mean. I've got cable internet but on my phone, it's like dialup. But it's so worth it! I love being able to see the real internet on my phone. Next year, I'm hoping to upgrade to the new Sidekick 3. I went to the TMobile store and looked at it. It's so nice! It's a lot lighter and the internet is faster, plus it's Blue Tooth enabled and also downloads MP3s. I want it badly.
