Checking email on the move still involves downloading it, which still
involves paying to recieve off-topic guff (like these emails have become!)

My phone has a perfectly usable keyboard and is not only easy to use
for email, but also remote server management, faxing, etc. etc.

If you're unable or unwilling to use a Blackberry to respond to your
council email, that's fine. But that doesn't mean that I'm not
perfectly able to run my business using my phone, nor that it's not a
viable or sensible solution.

I'll end this now with another plea for people to try and keep the
list contents on-topic.

Cheers,
TOM
