I freaking HATE iphone optimized websites! These uselss abbreviated websites are definately NOT what I’m wanting to see. The beauty of the iPhone is the ability to do FULL html Safari web browsing. If you decide to do this, at least provide a link to offer the ability to go to the full web version.

All you need to do is to put and lock urls on your windows “web-desktop”, and they will always be there.

I got gmail, a page with online radio player, and some other useful windows on my desktop, laying under the normal application windows.

easy to to, just use the build in web-desktop features of windows :)

Prism is very handy for this…creates basically a Firefox window for a specific site. Fires up almost instantaneously.

Especially nice if you have a touchscreen computer or a slate.
