i would LOVE to have wi-fi on my samsung s3650 corby touch. I would use it to IM & downoad apps and games for my phone. I don’t have service where i live so it would be really handy if i had wi-fi!! I also would like to know if there is a app/download that i can get that will let me access wi-fi.. i know it’s a slim chance, but i can hope right??

Im a little confused with wifi
I understand that you cannot always get service so with the verizon plan if I do not currently have internet on my phone plan but am looking at a phone with wifi how much will it be? Or is it like the itouch so since its wifi itll be free?
If someone could please explain it thanks

Wifi is very useful, especially if you have Skype or other VoIP software on your phone. Not having wifi is a major controlling thing for the carriers – witness the many devices introduced by AT&T, Sprint and VZW that have had their wifi disabled.

if (when) Celio comes out with drivers for the Redfly for the Iphone or blackberry, I think wifi will be more useful.

Here in the Philippines, where 3G coverage is very spotty and expensive I cant live w/o wifi on my phone. Having wifi on my phone while traveling to other countries gave me some saving because roaming is very expensive.

I used wifi, ever night when I arrived at home. Mainly for messenger, as the data coverage at my house drops from 3G to 2G then back again constantly and it plays havoc with internet connected applications.

If the data coverage was good enough to support constant 3G, I’ll still probably use wifi, because when it comes to a little internet radio or downloading a new application, you can beat the speed and reliability of the home broadband connection.

I listen to BBC radio 2 on my phone through wifi, especially when cooking. I’ve turned off 3G on my E90 because all it does is eat the battery. In fact, I’ve never found a use for 3G. I can send and receive phone calls, SMS, MMS without it, so what’s the big deal?
