How to surf the web on your 3 phone.

Ive figured out how to "surf" the web (i.e content outside of 3's "walled garden") on your 3 phone, its a little bit tricksy, but its doable, full info here:

basically it involves sending an email to a computer with a request for the url of the webpage you want to view embedded in it. The computer you send the email to is an automated service which grabs the page you want to view and then emails it back to you. And the good thing about this is at present, sending and receiving email on 3 is free, well until 1st december 2004 anyway.

HTH

PS this method only seems to work for textual content, if a page has any graphics on it, this service will strip them out, just leaving the text.
