I'm looking for a relatively cheap handheld device with a Web browser that can access the internet through WiFi. Being able to log on to public hotspots and access WEP and WPA protected routers is essential.
I use T-Mobile pre-paid cell service, but don't want to pay the freight for a contract which includes Web access through T-Mobile's network.
It looks like a USA-standards unlocked GSM phone, a GSM phone locked to T-Mobile's USA network or a stand-alone PDA with the required Web & WiFi support is what I'm looking for.
If non-GSM, non-T-Mobile phones will work in WiFi mode without activation, I'm open to those too.
My first search led me to an unlocked Motorola ZN5 for $190, but I couldn't find anything describing its ability to connect to hotspots or protected networks.
Can anybody suggest devices & sources for something that would work?
