Heya All.

Out of total boredom, i decived to copy the world factbook over to my x50v. After unzipping the zip file, i discovered it was over 70mb! So I decided to shink it, edit the html code to make it more readable on PDA's, and remove the flags.

The World Factbook v0.1:

* All countries
* All maps for all countries
* Smaller HTML files
* New index file
* Removed flags (And flags code in HTML)
* Up to date as of March 30, 2005

Size: 13.7MB! (5.1MB Zip)

This release is in pure HTML (Don't you just hate the Ebook versions of it?), so you can view it with Pcket Internet Explorer. Included are some screenshots.

Please, let me know what you all think of this version. If enough people like it, i will keep updating and maintain it.

You can browse the PDA Version before deciding if you want to download it.
