i550 questions and more

Hello!
1) Would you know if it is possible to install Palm OS 5 on Samsung
SPH-I500
2) Almost every time I go to sprint web site from i500 I get "error" or
"not available at this time", can it be due to the version of my browser? I
have blazer 2.1.4s2 Build 10
3) What is the good Internet Browser you can recommend for I500

Thank you

Don't know the hard specs on the I500, but for the most part Palm
devices are not upgradeable by the mfgs. That is your Kyocera 6035 is
stuck at it's palmOs version that shipped, same for the I300, I500, etc.
Phone developers spend their time bringing out new products with new
OS' not rerofitting the old ones.

Yeah I am disappointed as well.

Browser is not tied to the unit that tightly, though the OS is tied to a
architecture (chip type), and then the browser application is tied to
the OS build.

Search for browsers that support your versions of PalmOS.

thanks Steph

I recommend replacing the POS phone. The best ones that are a
workaround for me are Eudora. Still the phone will not do javascript
in any browser, rendering it useless on many web sites unfortunately
including MS Exchange servers.
