I consider my Raspberry Pi PC the weirdest device I used the internet on because the Raspberry Pi is very small, and look like a circuit board with USB ports, and other ports on it. It had a wired networking port. But, if you need to use wireless internet, you need to plug in a USB Wi-Fi adapter into an empty USB port.

I also owned a regular flip cell phone in 2008 which can access the internet by using a basic web browser and my cell phone signal. I found it kind of weird that I can browse basic sites on my flip phone's web browser.

I tried accessing the internet from my Kobo e-book reader once but it was really slow and could hardly connect to any sites, so I gave up on trying to use it. Other than that, I guess my old smartphone, which was an LG with an unknown operating system, was the weirdest device I used to connect to the internet.
 
Using my PS4 for internet is probably mine. It's not exactly strange in idea, but it isn't a friendly system - the browser is very simplistic and it doesn't make for the best experience.
 
I can't really say that I have. I'm definitely normal
 
In the past, I found connecting my Playstaion 2 Slim console to the internet kind of weird, and not very useful because the PS2 slim did not even have a web browser, online video apps like Netflix, only a few online multiplayer games for the PS2, and most PS2 games doesn't use the internet at all.

Online console gaming wasn't very popular until the PS3, and Xbox 360 came out.

I'd have to say the Wii internet browser. Was a bit strange with the controller.

you telling me they didn't improve it at all for PS4? It was a nightmare using the net on PS3.
 
It is kind of disapointing that web browsing on consoles have not improved where people can comfortably use a web browser on a console.

I also found using Internet Explorer on Xbox 360 to be a bad experience.
