    I may need to be corrected but....Nethopper does not use cookies so you
can not use it for the above mentioned uses. But Steve Weyers NewtsCape does.
It works with some of the internet sites but not all. I have had success with
fntasy football on yahoo. (yes I know I use my Newton only for important
things)
    has anyone had any success with any online services such as
my/excite/yahoo etc

As for e-mail try Simon Bells Simple Mail, it works very well through my
freewwweb and work dial in set ups. I dont think it will work with web based
mail though.

Good Luck
