Title: mobile keyboards..
Post by: cem_devecioglu on 28 August 2011, 15:55:16
useless crap when you try to post some writings (which is generally OOF).. I have a touch screen keyboard which becomes wider in horizontal position but I struggle to write even 2-3 sentences from those small areas of screen..so I give up most of the time..
(must admit my fingers are thick and flat and even dont fit lappy keyboards ;D ;D :-[)

I was waiting at the train station for  my number (to buy a ticket) and checked OOF as usual from it and sending a post was hard as usual.. I need a real big screen imo :-/

I can usually tell when someone is posting from a phone, as people who normally spell quite well post with lots of mistakes from a phone.
I cant think why I would want to use my phone for internet use.
Phones for talking to people.Computer for internet as far as Im concerned. :)

Correct tool for the job. :y

Posting to OOF using my mobile would be like me going into the garage and using my plumbing wrench as a hammer.






Actually, that's a bad example. ::)

Take no notice cem, it's bs for "I don't understand it in the slightest, so there for it must be useless"  ;)

Me Dad was the same. Then decided he needed a mobile so the family could  get hold of him. What's best ? He said.

My one I said. "I DON'T WANT ALL THAT TEXTING 'dangle berries' " he raged " I DON'T NEED THE INTERNET "..."I DONT NEED SAT NAV ON ME PHONE"

He text me about a year later me to say he has downloaded tom-tom onto his phone via wifi (which he also said he didn't need"I'VE SEEN EM, IN THE PUB AND IN MCDONALDS WITH THIER BLOODY LAP-TOPS, WHAT'S UP WITH THEM" ) and wanted to know how to set the home destination.  ;D

I regularly remind him of his anti tech dimissive rants.  ;D usually when he gets his mobile out at the dinner table, to check his watched items on eBay.  ;D

Can't beat a phone when your on the train, waiting in line, on the bog or in a "meeting"

Actually OOF surfing was better on my old SPV 3100 phone, decent size proper qwerty keyboard!

Thankfully the first two are things I spend vanishingly small amounts of time doing, and during the latter two the last things that are on my mind are OOF or Ebay.

I've had the HTC Desire HD for a year now and found it pretty good for using the internet, but like most ppl on here is use the net for checking emails, catching up on here and watching fleabay.
