According to a recent InfoGin survey students in the UK have given up trying to use the mobile web due to poor user experience.
Two thirds of the 1000 students in the study have stopped using the mobile web and even 3G owners were not much happier with only 18 percent reporting that they were happy using the mobile web.
“Today mobile users are faced with a very poor experience when they surf the internet on their mobiles. We commissioned this trial to demonstrate how crucial it is for operators to provide capabilities for end users to surf the real internet on their mobiles,” InfoGin CEO Eran Wyler said.
“Students are typically early adopters of services such as mobile internet, and the trial clearly demonstrates that operators should address such issues as downtime, web page layout and rich web functionality on mobiles.”

I am a student and I use the internet on my phone and have no problems, personally I like having the option to check news and emails whenever and wherever I like.
