I think that an HTML viewer is a bit farfetched, as the features hinge around
scalable fonts, graphics, tables, etc. A new markup language- a spitting image
of HTML- would be better. Pages made for tcml (TI-Calculator Markup Language)
would hinge around three fixed-size fonts and the fact that the screen is
small. I would just love to type in www.tcml.ticalc.org into my calc and
connect to the calculator version of ticalc.org, where I can download programs
and such.
