I tried iSilo, and it doesn't properly convert html tables that are wider than the Palm screen . . . or at least I can't figure out how to make it do that. Thus far, as I said before, the only solution I've hit upon is to convert the html screens to Excel screens and then use a Palm spreadsheet display program, but that's a realy pain. Not all MUNI drivers are deranged these days. Plenty of the passengers are, however.
