Title Gossamer 1.0: Calculator Web Browser
Description Gossamer 1.0 is a web browser for TI-83+ through TI-84+SE graphing calculators, using Doors CS 7, CALCnet 2.2, and globalCALCnet to download and display web pages from the internet. Scroll by lines or pages, click links, and browse to arbitrary URLs. Gossamer requires Doors CS 7.2 Beta 2 or higher (see http://dcs.cemetech.net) and can be used with an Arduino-based gCn bridge or a mini-USB cable. More info at http://cemete.ch/pr37.

Concept: 10/10 - A web browser... on a calculator.

Implementation: 9/10 - It's obviously been optimized a lot, but its still slow. Still, 9/10 because its on a calculator.

Ease of use: 9/10 - As good as you're going to get on a calculator, with a non-qwerty keyboard.

Originality: 10/10 - A testament to the power of the Global Calcnet and DoorsCS shell.

Features: 11/10 - Even an html parser is a huge achievement. Yeah, sure, it's text only, but it's still awesome.

Ease of use: 9/10 - Judging from the other review, people don't read the readme. The only gripe I have is error checking. If the Calcnet bridge isn't present, it will crash, requiring you to pull a battery. This could be avoided by a check. Or people could just read the documentation.

Overall 10/10 - An awesome program that stretches the limits of what is possible with these ubiquitous mathematical devices.
