You typed the address properly?

You specified DNS server addresses in your Internet Setup *or* your DHCP
server is providing some, right?

I don't believe there's a Newton driver available for that card. Try the
"28.8 and faster" setting in Modem Prefs.

Quick rundown of all the browsers is on the Wiki:

http://tools.unna.org/wikiwikinewt/index.php/WebBrowsers

Courier, actually, *is* a big list of bookmarks - you just haven't entered any
yet :)

Tap New, then tap the "i" in the upper-left corner of the window, write in a
title for this bookmark and the URL (don't forget http://), tap OK, then hit
either the "go to first page" button ( |<- ) or the Reload button to load the
page.
