If I remember right from when I was using a Palm, Avant-Go can store ANY
web page for later retrieval, by making "custom channels." I used to
download www.appleturns.com, for instance, which is just a normal HTML
page. So the format can't be THAT different from standard HTML. I think
that AvantGo "Channels" are just web pages that are laid out simply, and
with few graphics, for the AvantGo conduit to grab.
