TUM - Well, yes, sort of!
My main requirement with my Palm is to be able to pick up my e-mail when in the middle of nowhere. (And there's a lot of that where I go). Web browsing isn't high on my wish list. But your posting got me to give it a try, using Eudora EIS version 1.1 for the Palm (on Palm IIIc + Ericsson A1018s + DI27 IR modem)
1) Yes it works
2) It's quite legible and readable, but the formatting isn't quite what you would expect if you're used to a full size screen (the headings are there, but they're stacked and run over two lines owing to screen width)
3) No images
4) Surprisingly quick - base speed over a GSM phone is only 9600bps, but compression gets that up to an effective 38000bps.
5) However, looks like I will have to RTFM - seems to be running into a cache size limitation, which means that it doesn't download the entire list of forums (gets down to Europe, but doesn't get as far as Computers + Internet Issues). This may also get sorted with the new release of Eudora EIS (Ver 2) which will be out Real Soon).
6) Did manage to post successfully from the Palm (but in Africa Forum because I couldn't get as far down as this forum)
Think I agree with Pete O'heat - depends what your primary use is. If web browsing in the middle of nowhere (or down route) was of primary importance, then I'd probably go the Psion (or one of the Win CE PDA's). But my main criteria are portability, battery life, contact details, Calender, PIM, e-mail, and connectivity with my cell phone, so the Palm works for me. And e-mail over the Palm is working a charm.
