if not, i'll have to switch to another when my clié arrives... any good 320x320 browser out there?

If the new Blazer still depends on "server side" parsing, I'll pass on it. PalmScape does it faster on my Visor Prism anyway.
Just my $0.02,

1. CLIE is not the one with the lowest market share, Handspring, wait and see CLIE overtake you.
2. Yes, someone does it, Palmscape does have a version specifically designed for CLIE w/ High Res support, version 4.0J, in japanese.
RE: who cares?????
Really.. where did you get that? Where can I get it?
Thats what I want.
RE: who cares?????
Not mine. I have 50 free minutes of off peak calls on my mobile everyday - including Data. When do I want to check the web - off peak; after 7pm or at weekends.
Works for me.
RE: who cares?????
Just for now..Don't u see the poor palm and handspring's market is shrinking and will be out of market very soon.
The fact is:
CLIE 610/710/760 --- kill your sweet M505 and Prism
CLIE S320--- kill your lovely Visor Neo, M100.M105,M125
CLIE T415 --- kill your bricky Visor Patinum,Pro & M500
so... palm and Handspring will be history and we will miss them forever.
RE: who cares?????
My setup, however. uses an 802.11b connection through a cable ISP. Since I'm not allowing the server time to parse the data, Blazer ends up idling while waiting for the next chunk of data.
PalmScape, on the other hand, is able to take advantage of the extra bandwidth... so the speed isn't noticibly different from most of the other machine on my LAN.

Hey....where's my Hi-res??
Free upgrade for VisorPhone only?
Anyone know if this free upgrade is available for those of us who just bought Blazer, but don't own a Visor/VisorPhone?

Anyone else notice all the beta strings in the installer and readme file? Gotta love it *smirk*

RE: Eudora Web?
At the same time, I do enough web-browsing on my Palm to feel that the $20 for Blazer was money well spent. Every now and then I've just GOT to see some image, and Blazer does the best job I've seen. Palmscape was pretty good, and the old Proxiweb wasn't bad, but load Eudora Web and Blazer together and you've got a good toolset.
Blazer vs Palmscape
However, overall, I will still stay with Palmscape but will keep an eye on Blazer to see how it improves. But if Palmscape reduces it's messy design and offers a simple interface like the Blazer, it'll be a tough fight for Blazer.
By the way, Palmscape currently has a Clie hi-res Japanese version out that can't be used in English language Clies. However Palmscape has confimed that an English version will be forthcoming. The resolution of this version of Palmscape is astounding so very clear and beautiful. All the detail in the graphics is readable - better than a PC in my opinion!
RE: Blazer vs Palmscape
I would love to have it. Where did you find it?
Thanks.
RE: Blazer vs Palmscape
But the bad news, it is in Japanese as well. For those interested, the link is below:

RE: Blazer vs Palmscape
But since my Clie came with Xiino, I use Xiino most of the time because it is fast and most important it is hires on my Clie N750C, I can go to jsp pages as well (javascript).
