Livejournaling with PalmOS
Jun. 17th, 2008 02:45 pmI just got a Palm Centro, but I haven't found a good way to get fully integrated LJ usage from it:
1) All the clients I've found are post-only. They don't allow you to read other people's posts.
2) The built-in web browser, Blazer, doesn't seem to work with LJ at all. When I try to go to any specific post, it tries to save it as a text file instead of displaying it on the screen.
3) When I try to respond to posts from within Yahoo web mail (accessed through the included Mail client) it doesn't work because some of the keys used for typing (spacebar, backspace, and the 'm' key, for example) are mapped to other e-mail tasks, making it impossible to actually write in the text you want to reply with.
Since it's fairly obvious that the only reason the Centro was developed was for everyone to hear more about my exciting life on the couch with my dogs, this is all pretty surprising.
Anyone else found a better way to to LJ from their Palm or mobile device?
