    The Motorola V551 offers EDGE class 4 and bluetooth, along with a typical
    WAP browser.

    Free Opera Mini runs on the V551, giving a well-featured html experience.

    I like Opera Mini so much that I want to pay for ongoing server side
    support. It is a client server model, currently with some free server
    providing pre-processing of web pages. I don't want that to go away from
    lack of funding.

    www.cingular.com - Customer Service - Phones & Devices
    "Go to Phone & Device Support".
    doesn't allow you to search for features, but it does let you look at the
    specs for individual phones.

    Thanks for the info! What speeds can I expect on my laptop when connecting to EDGE through bluetooth?

    I want to be able to play online games on the go, would the EDGE provide a good enough connect to play online?

    TIA!

    I see 30Kbps in GPRS areas, 90-100Kbps in EDGE areas.
    Google this group for John Navas Shootout to find his results.

    I think not. The latency would kill you, not so much the speed.

    Likewise the V557, a minor update to the V551 that has replaced it in the
    Cingular lineup.

    The Motorola V551 is Edge Class 6 - 2U/3D/ GPRS Class 10, so a little
    faster than the V551.

    You mean V557 is EGPRS(EDGE) Class 6, but that's no faster than Class 4 on
    downlink, only on uplink, and then at the expense of some downlink speed.

    A Motorola V557 (EDGE+bluetooth)... connected to a laptop (with a
    bluetooth dongle) running FireFox!

    Then you are screwed, because I don't know if ANY standalone Cingular
    phones has "full HTML support".
