Well... The build of Minimo stalls quite easily... There was talk of porting Dillo, but I'm not sure how serious that is...

Strange way of choosing a games console...! I can appreciate a business being concerned over wep, but I would've thought gaming wasn't quite so serious...!
Probably better off getting a small laptop than an Illiad. Surfing at the moment is creaky and a bit slow (due to refresh rate, etc). Irex may resolve the problems tomorrow or may be next year. Best to buy the Iliad based on what it can do now (its a handy display device to replace paper) rather than what it can't.
