  No new toy, just revisiting an ‘old’ one with new inspiration, the NEC really is quite poor for entering any quantities of text – still, at least I can make a post to if I’m doing something extreme that is likely not to need my undivided attention for half an hour. Gonna have to devise a voice interface.

The problem is the MMI rather than the web browser on the phone (which is actually one of the better pieces of software on it), it takes so long to type an entry on a keypad without T9. Even if the damned thing supported WAP it wouldn’t make much of a difference.
