Websites on PDA

[coastertux]

Is it feasable to view websites on a WiFi PDA or is it too hard to see anything?

I would wager it depends on the PDA it self. Mostly the screen size and all...

Look for a browser that reformats the entire page so there's no horizontal scrolling. Works great if your pda is fast enough so there's minimal formating time. Of course it's no substitute for a big screen but it works.

netfont does a good job on that. it is a sony pda.

Another vote for a browser or a website that reformats for you. Very readible on my Palm Tungsten C and I am nearly blind.

Any suggestions for browsers? Just using the one that came with my Palm.

I like the PiePLUS add-on for Pocket IE. Netfront was so slow when I tried it out.
(Some say it's faster than Pocket IE, but for met, Netfront was a crawl). Try different stuff before you buy a browser.

Thunderhawk renders pages well and can do it in Landscape mode, but it's not free, something like $40.00 Windows Mobile 2003 SE is about to be released and it will support landscape mode natively wchich will make pages look better even with the regular PIE. Most importantly, WM2003SE support VGA (640X480) resolution, so with the right PDA (there's only Toshiba e800 as of now) you'll be able to browse just like on your PC.
