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?
Thanks.

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

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!
