Most everything is slow with a phone modem, iCab is pretty fast though.
I use a cable modem, but I was using a phone modem a few months ago.
I don't recall if iCab can upload pictures or not, but I do know that
Netscape 7.02 does upload pictures just fine as I have done so for an auction
of mine.
I also don't know if IE 5.1.7 will upload pictures or not either, but one
could try, just like one can try with iCab and see if it will upload pictures.
I do know that iCab doesn't handle the drop down things that look like arrows
pointing down on eBay which one can use to select actions.
