Umm - actually, if you're connected to the 'net on your Palm, you can enter
a URL and browse away to your heart's content (Channels menu -> Open
Page...).

from memory the main restriction is that it requires an HTML meta tag in the
header of the document to tell it that it will be able to display the page;

<meta name="HandheldFriendly" content="True">

other than that, it is a browser in it's own right, and can handle a fair
amount of the stuff that a normal browser can (albeit *much* smaller on a
Palm screen :)

// If you can get that working, then you can install AvantGo

// devices. With that installed, you can get it to browse content via your
