Well, it is going to be somewhat slow with a 14.4k modem. Actually, the way
Newt's Cape works is it downloads the files then it parses the html for the
Newton. When you said that it was slow, did you mean the actual transfer of
the data or the parsing of the data? I get decent data transfer with my 33.6k
modem but it does take a bit of time for the parsing to occur.
Yes, today's html pages are big so they will fill up your cache quickly.
Don't be spooked, just set Newt's Cape to hold a limited amount of history in
its cache and work that way. I find it invaluable for downloading the NY
Times and the Wall St. Journal so I can read on the go.
Bondster!
