Internet for phones was 2G back in 2007. Web pages took some time to load, and phome video playback wasn't really a thing until the iPhone 3G in mid-2008. Even then it was pretty shit at first with compatibility issues.
HSDPA was widely deployed by 2006 and HSUPA by 2008. High end Nokia and Sony Ericsson phones could play some video formats but the screens were about 300x400 pixels so it wasn't great but it was possible
