     The problems, for ProTerm, in developing its own graphical web 
browser is that it is a major undertaking and that SIS is likely to own 
most the market before a ProTerm graphical release is ready.

     An alternative would be to aim for an advanced text-based browser. 
Representing web graphics information in text form (e.g. labels 
instead of pics) would fit ProTerm's general approach and might attract 
users who value speed more than pretty displays.
