PocketPC web-browsing question
 
Aside from the small & portrait-format screen, how good are PocketPCs PDAs in terms of web-browsing capability?

Most importantly:
- can i access by secure internet banking/trading sites?
- can i surf and post on FT? http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...orum/smile.gif

Thanks.

Yes, you can http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...orum/smile.gif

But it is a pain to reply to anything.

FT is a frame environment, and that takes plenty of space, resizing and everything.

I only use my pocket pc to browse FT once in a while.

My laptop is best for that http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttravel_forum/wink.gif

If you use a GOOD browser like Netfront then you can browse secure sites and even sites with Java apps and Java script.

Add a screen resolution changing program like Nyditot and you can get 640*480 landscape browsing!
