On another note, I have some animated icons for weather panel that I like much better, but it cost almost 1mb of space. If you are interested, I can send them to you.

Thanks
as much as i would LOVE to replace PIE, its not really feasable from a great deal of standpoints. Its so interwoven into the OS that removing it would have serious repercussions.

The other browsers take up SOOOOO much room. I mean, they are HUGE. I think netfront was the smallest of the bunch, but i think that one weighd in at like 5 megs. Im teetering on like 500k of free ROM space as it is! I figured putting in PiePlus was a good "compromise" if you know what i mean, and its really simple to disable if you dont like it (see known issues).

The animated icons are already like a meg, so if you got better ones id LOVE to get my hands on them. Shoot them over to me plz, would be much appreciated. Thanks for the feedback
