Sean, what happens when you try to get to b.org with your cell?
eta: I'm trying to figure out if the problem is with the client (phone) or server (cell phone co's server's handling of b.org pages).
Book: I am a Shepherd. Folks like a man of God. Mal: No, they don't. Men of God make everyone feel guilty and judged.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A fairly negative review of Vista: [link]
What's kinda' interesting is this is MSNBC.
(MSNBC.com is a Microsoft-NBC Universal joint venture.)
But MSNBC seems to be pretty fair. A few years back they recommended Linux over Windows for a server OS.

It says "page cannot be displayed".

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Have you tried it with and without the www in front? Cell phone browsers can be finicky little bastards.

Hey Sean:
But if you're forced to look elsewhere around the Web while on a low-bandwidth connection, do yourself a favor and bookmark Google's Enter A URL page reformatting tool. Any URL you enter there will come out in a tight, handheld-friendly column without pictures, if you set it up that way. There's nothing faster and cheaper to load than a pared-down page--and it won't turn you into a Popeye if you look at it on a notebook.

Yeah, I've tried it with the entire http ://www...., just the www.... and just typing in buffistas.org. None of them work. There might be helpful information on the Cingular website. I should check that out someday.

Feh. My phone browser won't load that page either.

Apparently there is a Java version of Opera that's designed to run on cell phones: [link]
Dunno how feasible this is....

That page is incredibly simple. Just text, a text box, button and check box. If your phone won't even load that....
Although that page is actually html inside xml, so maybe it's the xml that's the problem....

That's what I'm wondering. I think I'll try the Opera thing. That just might work.
