Re: [NTLK] NetHopper Character Sets and eMate

        The problem is not related to the emate, itīs all about the
activation order of the different packages. At the time, I didnīt know how
to delay the activation for the packages until the main Nethopper package
was finished. Thatīs why freezing/thawing works.

        Iīll try to find some time in the next days to fix that and put all
the modifications in one package.

Asunto: Re: [NTLK] NetHopper Character Sets and eMate

Yes, Newtscape would work, but if you look at the original blog post I
referenced in my last email, I was concerned about loading a web page as
quickly as possible to prevent battery drain, something NetHopper does
faster than Newtscape.
I did decide to put Newtscape on my eMate, however, since it handles
encoding without additional packages, handles redirects, is a little more
stable, but most importantly on the eMate, takes up much less storage space.
It ought to do the trick for me next time I need to validate to a web page
before using a wifi network.

Until I hear otherwise from Daniel Padilla, I guess I am to assume that
something about the package specifies you need to use it on a MessagePad
2100. The freeze package workaround does work, but in the end the smaller
memory footprint convinced me that Newtscape on the eMate is the way to go.
