I'm using Opera's Java browser for cell phones. It is noticeably faster 
than the built in browser in my Ericsson K700i (which is a rather ordinary 
phone, nothing special).

Anyway, I can really recommend Opera's Java browser which is free - I've 
used it to browse pages on pmwiki.org, and even edit them (it's still a 
PITA to enter text though).

Here's the link:

PS. I think what they do is send the pages through a Opera server that 
transforms the page to look good in your cell phone. This reduces download 
times substantially since figures are smaller etc. I haven't investigated 
this in detail though.
