If I use the user-contributed port of the Dillo web browser on my Iliad to (wirelessly) read sites that I know in advance work and that provide lots of text on one easily-scrolled page, then I find the experience fine, but randomly browsing the internet quickly shows up the limitations of Dillo and the other ported web browsers.

It could be a great experience, but it ain't, and that, IMHO, is due to Irex's seeming inability to improve the device's software themselves, coupled with a recent total neglect of their clearly keen user and developer communities.

A damn shame.
