Looks like another build of Avantgo. 


Release Notes for 5.2 Build 46

Palm OS 5 high resolution mode is now supported (NOTE: For a brief time the formatting of the on-device AvantGo homepage will not use all of the available screen area, but we expect to have this issue fixed on our servers soon)
Navigation using the Palm 5-way navigator button and the Sony Jog Dial has been changed based on user suggestions to facilitate one-handed operation
Some performance improvements have been made for launching the application when content has been synced to a to memory card.
Fixes to numerous minor bugs

Here are a few things that I have noticed that still need to be fixed.

No Hires+ support yet.

Online mode is having difficulty with the WL100
(Keeps getting DNS errors)

Wireless Hotsync Hangs when using the Memory Stick for saving pages.

However using the memory stick for saving is faster, and tolerable.

I may even look at it again when they get to the hi-res+ issue . . . ;)

HIRES is better, but we need +++++++++++

I love the job dial. So much easier for one handed surfing.

I've got the beta running on my NR70 (OS4.1).
It says it won't work on earlier OSes. I read that on my handheld while it was running fine ;)

One issue- the font is way ugly. Looks like a dot-matrix printout from the classic Mac printer. Any way to fix this? Hires Assist doesn't change it.

Does this work only with OS5 devices, or can OS4.1 devices use it to store data on MS as well?

I have recently moved from Avantgo to iSilo, for those of you frustrated like I was with Avantgo's lack of os 5 support... iSilo is a very nice program that does everything Avantgo does plus sooooooOOOOOoooooOOooo much more!

I have had it running on my NR70V but the terrible fonts resulted in me removing it immediately and reverting back to an older version.

I did try changing them with font hack but that didnt seem to make any difference.

Think I might give iSilo a try. Does it have support for HiRes+ ?

Full Screen HiRes+ looks so nice in ISilo. No status bar or anything..
