nicu writes "Back in April the Pogo device has been regarded with scepticism by many of the slashdot users. People should have a look to see where are they now, as it is the fastest wireless web browser around. The claim for 56k was made for ordinary CSD at 9.6k baud. For GPRS it claims more than 120k and it really feels that way. Customer reviews are available at the Pogo Portal."
