Oh yes, I see. Well with a resolution of 640x480 this might be really no fun 
to use it. What browser for that is in your mind? I saw none, which did really 
grab me. Just as you said: the small display. Maybe "Dillo2" seems a good 
solution, although it lacks of java. Firefox, minimo, gpe-minibrowser got the 
same problem. Opera is not running in Anstrom, and Konqueror (my second 
favbourite one), needs opie (better say: qt4). 

Anyway, I am looking forward to it, and you will get my feedback as soon as it 
is out. Promised!

Cheers
