Hi Jeremy
I tried the Opera web browser on a PDA (Dell) recently and it worked much
better than the standard version of IE that usually comes installed on these
things. You could try installing that on the iPronto.
Regards,
Aejaz

Thanks Simon
I had been looking at the iPronto, which as you say appears to press all the
right buttons, but if you look at the Philips FAQs on the iPronto's web
access, it states that it includes a non-standard browser, which uses a non-
standard javascript, and in fact only has limited memory allocation for
running javascript. It is also not MIME compatible. That's why I am looking
for alternatives.
Has anyone actually used an iPronto for some 'serious' web browsing and if
so, could I please have some feedback, given that is seems like the only
serous possibility at the moment?
cheers
Jeremy
