Used Oz VGA, it works as advertised, but every time I use IE in hires and drop down the favorites to pick a new site I get an IE has encountered a problem, report to M$ error message... it continues ok but its unnerving.

Installed v3.2 of Netfront, but it soft resets the device when its run... figured I would try the *.mui method with it, but since I cant get it to run its a waste.

So is there a stable way of surfing the web in true VGA in Windows Mobile 5 on the 51v? IE looks beautiful onder Oz VGA but it doesnt seem very stable.

Anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Hi!
There is one solution, however its a bit troublesome. If you have your desktop computer running at home with a broadband connection, you can connect via Terminal Services Client and use the webbrowser of your desktop computer. You will get VGA (or almost, as scrolling-bars and stuff take some of the view, but I find it really good. Especially when browsing big sites, sites with Java or using netbanking. (Yes, I am confident about using netbanking with SSL encryption, even on non-secured, public hot spots)

Of course, we all want a good, true VGA webbrowser on our PDA, but if you haven't thought about this possibility, I would just point it out. What you don't get, is streaming and sound of course..
