I used a Symbian phone to find a cafe in Providence once while working there in winter 2005/6 or so. And got charged like $2 from Cingular for loading one yelp page listing. I was so cold, and had to shit so bad I didn’t care.

    I remember. Mobile internet was ridiculously expensive. Browsers used to have an option to not download images and videos, that used to help a lot. Then Opera Mini came and these problems were gone for good.
