Yeah! I also have the Onion. I like this. Anyone have other good sites they use for AvantGo? Anyone else even Dope with their Palm Pilot?

I started using AvantGo [Palm flavor] a couple weeks ago. I read the blurb about SD but I don’t think I’ll add it, because I think it’d be more efficient all around (yeah, more work for SDstaff too) to have a URL just for mobile links.

I’d considered adding teemings, but I’m not going to do that either because the URL for the latest issue changes. Maybe I’ll look into that further.

I mainly have channels from the lists on the AvantGo site now, abcnews, handheld crime, the onion, salon, hollywood [local movie listings], [shortstories.co.uk](http://shortstories.co.uk) (love this one!), and Wired news.

For a short period of time I had the [IADL](http://www.spinnwebe.com/iadl/) (actually the archive) but the page I linked to was far larger than the 768K I’d allocated for it. Hmm, think I’ll add the IADL sans archive back.
