netsurf is already ported and its SDL interface is almost not usable without the mouse. keymouse somehow addresses this issue, but this is still no good. gdk-pixbuf interface of netsurf could be more usable without the mouse, but it's slow like hell.

the only working "graphical" browsers now are w3m (-img) and links (-g), both ported btw.

 Hello everyone,

 I am extremely interested in your organisation. In particular, I think
 you have a veritable masterpiece in the Nanonote line. If I may say so,
 I think I have found the "ukulele" of computers- it is small,
 marvellously capable and hard to put down, just like a uke. However,
 there are many improvements to be made, I am sure you get that a lot.
 I am interested in learning to be almost entirely self-sufficient in
 terms of understanding the inner workings of a system so I can take full
 advantage of the famous 4 Freedoms.
 Urgent issues I would like addressed in the second Nanonote are:
 change of keyboard layout. I am guessing we have more than one mother
 tongue for people hacking on the NN. Qwerty can't possibly serve all of
 them equally well. qwerty... was cool about 100 years ago...not so much
 now, especially since we have the design freedom to think for ourselves.
 maybe a vote or compromise can be reached...perhaps we should optimise
 it for thumb-typing...

 need of a browser. I don't need to say much here, I'm not looking for
 FireFox4 here, just something light and graphical (Minimo, Dillo, etc.)

Take a look on netsurf (http://www.netsurf-browser.org/). I tried it on Zipit
Z2 (it's pretty similar to nanonote, just pxa270-based and has wifi) and it
looks pretty good (see http://anarsoul.blogspot.com/2011/04/netsurf-on-zipit-
z2.html). Maybe someone want to make port for nanonote? :)

 more legitimate screen resolution. Even GPL programs laugh at us
 without a respectable sized screen. A lot of ports have been shout down
 because of this, am I right?

 solid networking. I need someone to clear up the whole "why we can't
 use wifi or 802.11x issue"

 I think this about covers it for my first post.

 Oh yeah, and by the way, Jane says hi.

 Hack well
