mogui · 02-02-2007, 12:58 AM

I am strongly leaning toward the purchase of the Palm T|X as my reader of choice. My reasons are:
1/ That it is good enough for fun reading.
2/ That it runs all my legacy palm stuff including years of notes and addresses.

Now I would like your help in cementing my resolve. I have become quite addicted to the use of tiddlywikis as a means of organization. See this https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...7&postcount=37 post. I used to create a "start" page/portal for all my links which I would keep on my PC and also on the web. This is preferable to bookmarks which tend to get lost or overwritten. Now I have switched to a tiddlywiki. It is far superior as I can organize my links by topic and include notes and photos about them.

The T|X browser is said to run javascript. I would like to know if it would bring up a tiddlywiki.

I am willing to fiddle with the style sheet to make the tiddlywiki fit the screen format of the T|X so that is not a problem. What I would like to know is, does the T|X run the tiddlywiki? Is is reasonably fast?

This fellow http://ccahua.typepad.com/binky/2005...wiki_on_t.html edits microcontent on his Palm and moves it to a tiddlywiki. He doesn't say which Palm he uses. His tiddlywiki is here: http://ccahua.typepad.com/binky/files/PalmTW.html

This http://http://tiddlywiki.com/ is the main tiddlywiki site.

If you can bring up the above URL for the tiddlywiki on your TX and navigate the pages, I would be interested to know how well it works. Thanks in advance.
