ok, I've got a really annoying problem that started when I jumped to wm6 on my apache/6700. I've looked around for an answer to this but didn't find anything...I didn't have this issue when running 3.5

When using the built in "pocket internet explorer", for some wierd reason when using my EVDO data connection, I can't open up the site msnbc.com, and I always get the error, "the page cannot be displayed or downloaded because the connection was lost".

Keep in mind that ALL other sites open JUST FINE, for example news.google.com opens ok. Even large sites like espn.com work, as well as the smaller mobile version of espn.

Now here is the wierd thing, if I connect via WIFI, then the msnbc.com site loads just fine. ALSO, if I cradle my device (and it connects via my "mobile device center" to my PC), the site, msnbc.com, also opens just fine (as I think the apache then uses the internet connection from my PC).

Oddly enough, msnbc.com DOES open using using DEEPFISH over EVDO, so I am really suspecting this is a pocket IE issue.

Somehow whenever the apache tries to "open" the msnbc.com site via EVDO using pocket IE, it just barfs and gives the error message i mentioned above. It's so strange that this one specific site make the 6700 go bonkers...

Any suggestions.....?
