Dear All,

I received my Iliad yesterday and am already hooked. I guess you already have tried this trick - but just in case you haven't - if you create an HTML file with a local link in it and copy it to your Iliad, then the browser will happily display that file for you from the local tree.

eg:

<a href="/var/log/messages">messages</a>

<a href="/etc/passwd">password</a>

<a href="/proc/stat">stat</a>

Chris.
