The Sprint PCS MiniBrowser. The Sprint PCS MiniBrowser allows you to access certain information such as stock quotes and weather via the Internet. Browsing the web via the phone is not like using your home computer. Site providers have selected only the critical aspects of their site to present to wireless phone users, and have removed most graphics. Each time you start MiniBrowser, the phone will connect to the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network as necessary, and the service indicator icon ( ) will appear on the display. Any time the service indicator icon is visible on the display, your phone is connected to the Sprint PCS Nationwide Network and you will be billed accordingly. Rates will vary according to your billing plan. The Sprint PCS MiniBrowser will end the connection after a certain period of network inactivity and will automatically re-connect as necessary. For this reason, you may ﬁnd that you are billed for several network connections within a single MiniBrowser session. This is normal and is designed to minimize your bill. 85
