" VZW MOBILE WEB IS UNAVAILABLE OVER WI-FI CONNECTION, HOWEVER, YOU CAN STILL ACCESS THE INTERNET AND SEARCH THE WEB. TO ENJOY THE LATEST NEWS,SPORTS,WEATHER AND ENTERTAINMENT THROUGH VZW MOBILE WEB PLEASE SWITCH TO THE VERIZON WIRELESS NETWORK CONNECTION."

    Have you tried a battery pull? Keep in mind the mobile web is the same for their devices across the board, they do have devices that have WiFi, so their error messages would have to cover them all. Not sure why you are pulling the wrong error message however.

    Can you browse to any other web sites? Hit menu > go to and try google. Could be a location issue or they are having issues with the server you are normally connecting to (though I am sure the issue would be more wide spread)

    I belive this is a Verizon issue, I had the same issue last night and it went way by itself this morning. I did nothing to my phone to get it to clear.

    Sounds like an internal issue. Might want to report it on dataoutages.com as a browser issue.

    Had similar problem a month back, called vzw and they had me type ##000000 , went down to sip password which appears empty, typed vzw , hit BB key and told to store, phone rebooted and all is fine now. The tech said it had forgot the password??? All I know is that it has been flawless since

    I began getting the same message on my Tour yesterday, obviously not a WiFi device. I was looking at a Storm2 last night at a VZ store and that also was giving the same message for this link. Has to be a VZ problem and not our phones.

    well i just got off the phone with VZW and they fixed my problem. dont know what it was but it took 1hr to fix. and several changes to the berry and 2 battery pulls called *228 option 1 then option 2 then ##000000 also changed the verizon from global to 1XEV unknown what it was before. I also had to re do my entire email system and they re worked something and ficxed the issue right away.

    I just got my Tour today also, and have had problems with it ever since getting home. It will work for a few minutes, then not work. FaceBook app has never worked. Hope Verizon gets its crap together... definitely not a good first impression.
