T-mobile $1.49 a day web access... Can you access mousewait mobile website?

[jory29]

Can anyone tell me if you can open up a website such as mousewait mobile on a smart phone with the T-mobile $1.49 a day web access plan? I have an unlocked GSM phone and so I know T-mobile works when I insert the T-mobile sim card, I just have to decide if I want to try the $1.49 a day browsing plan for prepaid, and I am not sure if I will be able to browse any website with it, or if I have to route through their web2go website? Can anyone who uses T-mobile help? Thanks! I am in Canada and though I was able to pay for the $1.49 charge, I am unable to browse, and I think it's because it is roaming, and roaming won't work on that pass for any data I guess. I had just wanted to see how it works, had planned to test it on one page but for now thought I would ask here.

Yes, you can open the MouseWait mobile site from any smartphone - it is optimized for the Opera Mini Browser but it seems to work on most smartphone browsers (ie BlackBerry, etc). Do you have a phone that has a screen size similar to an iphone or android device?

Great, thanks Onetrue for your reply! I will make sure to use Opera browser, and it's a Pharos smart phone, similar in screen size to an ipod, a little smaller. I can access mousewait from home using IE and wifi, but just wondered about the $1.49 a day browser, I wasn't sure if it was a mini browser for Tmobile or if full use of browser was available. Obviously some pages may not open, and I may have to try the mobile web site whenever possible... Do you know if it's safe and secure to check email from the phone? Thanks!
