If they can go to 600 wide, the length should not
matter too much. They should scroll ok then. Also,
if you get Spectrum Web Browser, you could make
them HTML files at 600 wide and view them ok, I
would think.

Not to mention that there are not many Second Sight video
cards to be had. How many of us actually has one. Not Me!
