I even managed to get onto the web with my cellular phone and my TT one time - using the WAP (Wireless Access Protocol - which uses IP but not TCP) dial up number I was given by cellnet. It only lets me access the Genie.co.uk website, which uses heavy amounts of Javascript, but it was cool to do. It's not a matter of OS - the Internet is not for PCs and Macs, it's for Computing devices!
What's this about Opera for TOS? That would be amazing. Could somebody write a WML/WAP browser for the Atari? It would be quite simple to do, only one size of font etc. so no need for NVDI/GDOS except for printing, blah...I know someone wrote a WML picture-type viewer for the ST, although I don't know why?
