Try:

www.isilo.com (http://www.isilo.com) or

www.avantgo.com (http://www.avantgo.com)

Other folks have talked about a product called Plucker, but I have never had much luck getting it to work.  I use both iSilo and AvantGo, depending upon what I want to sync to the PDA.

if you want to surf your clie, you'll need some kind of internet connection (cell. phone, PC, modem, bluetooth or wifi).

The last I have heard, there is no way that cradle/cable will work.

You can't surf using an USB cradle. You;ll need a SERIAL one, or use those new RJ45 (ethernet) cradle. I know there's one for the palm 3 series. Not for sure there is such a cradle for the Clie.

I was able to save a web page with IE's "save as web page, complete), then copy the file and the images folder to MS. Using NetFront, I loaded a "saved" page and viewed the page in its entirety.

Now all that said, I have since uninstalled netFront due to frequent crashes and cannot re-install it due to additional crashes.

I had nothing but trouble with Net Front. It needs at least 6MB of RAM to install into RAM. Some have used PowerRun to use it from the memory stick.
