I've spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out how to acquire the best browser application for my Zire 72 and palmone wi-fi card. Thusfar, for whatever reason, I have gotten nowhere.

I am hoping that experienced users can help tell me what browser they think would be best for my hardware and how to get it. I do not seem to be savy enough to locate where to download the browsers I have seen mentioned (Blazer,Versamail and webpro) and now that I've wound up here, I would greatly appreciate being educated on these two questions. Thank you in advance for your patience and help.

For Blazer I got this message stating that the product is no longer available for purchase: http://palmsource.palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&prodid=33508

NetFront doesn't seem to be available, either.

Webpro is here: http://palmsource.palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&prodID=52339 it looks like an update only, for T3 users

VersaMail is here: http://www.palm.com/us/software/versamail25/ Not sure if it works on a Zire 72 or not (71 is listed.)

How about SnapperMail or Agendus Mail?

NetFront is still available, floating around the forums here. PM me if you want it, and IMHO, that's the best browser for the Z72.

Please use the search buttons!!!! I have this one thread which has all the most best browsers for palm os with quick review and my opinion should you try it out. It isn't really nice to write always the same anwsers when some new dude try find anwser to his or her question. I'm just saying that you aren't alone in this forum just because many think that they are and that is why they post new thread without searhing.

Peace.

PS. If you found my thread about web browsers before this post but you didn't find information what you were searching please send PM for comment or just reply so I will try to develope them to better direction. I have plans to develope my Web browser, Movie player, IM app and Email app threads to a very usefull threads. I want all are happy with them.

Hmm hmm ... funny answers here ... :rolleyes: ;)

Versamail, Snappermail and Agendus mail are MAIL CLIENTS. Nothing to do with browsers.

WebPro should have come with the installation CD if I am not mistaking (but don't bother), Xiino is another alternative (I use that on my T3).
There is a new browser in private beta testing called Universe (tabbed browsing !!) but no idea when it will be finished.

I hate to tell newbies to work hard at finding information, but Macey's website palm discovery is more oriented towards your needs. (She loves her zire 72). What is a fair amount of time to research Wi fi? If you have never experienced using a pda with wi-fi it is not at all similar to using a pc with Wi-fi, though some experience does help.

I'm not sure if there is a palm user group near your area, however if there is a Starbucks near your area you'll find wi- fi users and learn that some wi-fi is not free.
