Flurry is a pretty cool new service/application which helps you bring all your countless e-mail accounts and favorite news headlines to your cellphone. Signing up for an account is free, and you’ll receive a text message with a link to download the application. After you’ve set that up, you can access any number of POP mail servers with almost no configuration. You’ll have access not just to your e-mail, but also any contacts from that service, and Flurry will even let you view certain attachments like photos. From my tests so far, the application is pretty fast, but be sure to have signed up for a data plan from your cellphone service provider or your next bill will not be pretty to look at.
By the way, my favorite e-mail service, Goowy, now supports Flurry, so you can access the Flash-only site in HTML glory via your cellphone as well.

Because of bandwidth issues, most cellular providers have a cap on cellular wireless plans. Mine’s 250 Mb/ month. For about $100. Ouch. And I don’t really want to scroll through a load of spam on my PDA, making my thumb sore. […]
