NewsWeek & JPost Settings anyone?
Hi, I'm on day two of my iSilo trial but am already converted - I've uninstalled avantgo and mobipocket and love this application! However, I've been unable to setup two of the sites I used to read with MobiPocket:
Newsweek (www.newsweek.com) The Jerusalem Post (www.jpost.com) Are there any iSilo users on these forums that can help me with setting these up? Thanks in advance, Melvyn |

Melvyn,
I am happy to hear that you like iSilo as much as most of us do. Here is the deal: Both Newsweek and JP don't offer free mobile-optimized websites. At least in the case of JP I know that there is a mobile-optimized website, but it is not free and access can only be acquired through Roundpoint. I am not a fan of Roundpoint. If you know how to use a Java Debugger, there are ways how to find out the prescription url which you can directly use with iSilo. However, for obvious reasons I am not going into more details here... Mobipocket on the other hand uses its more advanced script language to convert standard web sites (such as http://www.jpost.com) to mobile-optimized ones. Unfortunately, iSilo doesn't have this functionality yet. I will keep you in touch as soon as I come up with a solution! Alex |

Hi
I'd like to subscribe to the Irish Independent (www.unison.ie/irish_independent/) which uses Roundpoint. However, I'd like to be able to download it using iSilo. I don't know how to use a Java Debugger so I'm hoping someone else can provide me with the necessary settings. Can anyone help please? Thanks Colin |
