Mobile-only Web: Day 6

1. I need a keyboard I can dock this with.
2. Typing html (especially links) just isn't worth it most of the time. At least until #1 is resolved.
3. A full-on reset on this mobile is a tremendous pain both before (due to incorrect and/or incomplete instructions) and after (due to the lost settings, programs, ringtones, etc).
4. Never change your phone's password while half-asleep and expect to remember it in the morning. See #3.
5. I really want an "email this link" function when browsing the web.
6. When using the mobile for constant web surfing, phone calls, and listening to music (I have 800 MB of music on board via my Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription), the battery life is not as good as I want. Not the worst I've ever had, but I consider 24 hours to be an good goal.
7. The was a power outage in my neighborhood most of the day today. I was able to hit the web, check email, etc, like normal on my mobile so I was proud of that fact but then I remembered #6. I think hand-turned crank chargers will be the key to mobiles (and thus the web in general) in developing nations but I wonder how well a charger like that would power my mobile. I can't see that happening until battery life and power consumption improves drastically.
