The Iphone like the Ipod touch shows internet as you see on a PC. Most mobiles show all text and not the same screen you see on a pc.

Is there a mobile - ideally payg - that has pc internet quality?

thanks

    If you mean as in the touch screen then then LG and Samsung have fairly decent ipod types phones that are available cheap

    Tons of phones are capable of showing 'full' websites, my N95 did it 3 years ago!

    How do you define cheap anyway, decent PAYG phones rarely are. Should be able to get a HTC Hero from eBay relatively cheap now the newer HTC phones are on their way.

    The Hero will be getting an Android 2.x update soon so will be current.

    Asda is no Walmart. I wish they would change the name (Bristol Cribbs Causeway).

    If anyone has been to a USA Walmart they will know how cheap and cool that store is - and walmart usa does not sell groceries like a supermarket.

    In the UK they always import and then screw up a good usa idea.

    For instance, the USA model of stock em high sell em cheap earns USA trillions, but here we sell for exepnsive prices and don't sell in quantities.

    UK stores...reduce your prices and you will sell more!!! No brainer!

    what are you talking about.

    N95 does not, and Hero is very steep in price (£200+)

    It might be now, but I figure the price will come down.

    And anyway, the N95 displays full web pages with no problem, I had one from a couple of months after it was released, and used it for browsing until late January this year (when it was replaced by Nexus One).
