BYOAC on Palm 700p? PalmMAME?
MYX:
Hey all, I am looking at getting a Palm Trio. It has a web browser on it. It is not the small mobile web 2.0 thing like on standard cell phones. Has anyone who has smartphone (blackberry, Moterola Q, or Trio...) tried looking at accessing BYOAC (Forums) to see if it works? I am also curious about the BYOAC Wiki as well.

You mean the Palm Treo?
I have a T-Mobile MDA Pro (aka HTC Universal, Imate Jasjar). It's a phone/PDA and BYOAC works on that, but I'd say that a smart phone will have a screen too small to read a website like BYOAC.
It would be better with a mobile theme, but still.
Actually you could download a Palm Treo skinned Simulator and see for yourself if it works. You have to register for it. Not sure how hard that is these days.

:edit: Now that I think about it. It could be the simulator is without web browser.

I periodically browse from my Blackberry using the WAP interface.

No login in that interface, but reasonably quick for keeping current. Not a preferred way to browse.
Cheers.

Sorry, my bad.
Yeah, I am still trying to decide between the 700p and 700w (palm vs. Win platforms). I will be pulling the trigger on Monday. I do not feel I need to be connected 24/7 to this site, but I was curious, you know for like if I am on a long car ride.
Can I look at ebay? I am going to be getting hooked up with the data plan and they tell me it is broadband on a mobile device, but I will believe it when I see it.

Maybe you should try a PocketPC or Palm forum. There should be someone there with a Treo.
The PDA/phone I have is comparable with the windows version of the Treo sort of. it has the same web browser at least (Pocket IE). ebay works fine on mine. But then my PDA has a 640x480 screen. Not really comparable to a Treo 240x240 screen. Like I said, BYOAC works fine too. Logging in and posting works fine too. Never tried paying with paypal or anything, but I'd say that should work too. Only problems I've had is with sites that need certificates, but even those usually work (in the end).
I have a flat fee dataplan too. It's reasonably fast, but it's hardly broadband.
