Hello
Could anyine suggest a decent web browser for the Visor. Im using ProxiWeb at the moment which is fine but it will not let me get to my yahoo mail. I go to log in and it just keeps returning me to the log in page. I believe it is because for some reason the browser will not accept cookies. There is a small help file telling how to accept cookies in the browser but the menu it suggests does not exist. Anyways, any suggestion for a decent browser is much appreciated. Thanks.

I believe both of the above mentioned browsers suport cookies, although I haven't tried to use YahooMail.

Do you have an e-mail client? You can set up YahooMail as a POP3 account. Use the following as the server address:

pop.mail.yahoo.com

Hope that helps.

AFAIK, ProxiWeb is discontinued and replaced with Browse-It. Both use a proxy-based approach, i.e. pages are downloaded through a proxy server that formats them (rescale images, ...) to make them suitable for viewing on a small screen. As I understand, they will soon charge for using Bowse-it; now you just have to register

I'm not sure about Blazer, but I think it is not proxy-based. It's fast anyway because it does the rendering on the fly, before it has received all the page.
I have managed to check my Yahoo! account with Blazer. Although it does not manage frames, when you try to access a page with frames it will let you choose which frame to display; so if you choose the second one, that's the right pane where your messages are displayed.
