I have my email sent to my cell phone whenever Protek or ClearCapital send me a potential job. But if I am out in the field I will lose the job for not responding fast enough. I could use my laptop and my cell phone to connect but even in that amount of time the job is gone.

I tried accessing the protk.com website with my phone using Mobile Web but received an error message Verizon said was the protk.com site's problem. I think it's because the site is not wireless-friendly (WAP-style).

Has anyone else found a solution to this problem?

You can hire an assitant and have them call you or reply to the message for you. You can get virtual assistants pretty cheaply... just not losing one deal can pay for it for decades.

You may also want to consider a new device. I swear by my Treo 650 when I'm out and about. Since it uses a full-featured style browser (Blazer) you aren't limited to WAP only sites.

Not all websites are "mobile friendly" even on a Treo, but you can "test drive" one in your local cell phone store to check for a mission-critical app like this one, I'm sure.

And, it's not much bigger than a standard cell phone. The Treo 650 puts a lot of power in a tiny package -- it gives you the ability to email, surf the web, place calls, stay in touch, check your calendar, jot some notes, brainstorm, even read a book or play a game. There's never a time when I'm tapping my foot waiting on someone else now (and I'm an impatient person) -- because there's always something I can do on my Treo to keep my business moving along.

Hope this helps,
