This is an excellent point. TIML would also make an excellent documentation
format.

Standard HTML on a calculator IS impractical. Most sites today rely heavily on
graphics, tables, text formatting, centered around a 640x480+ resolution, ect., to
ever be viewed efficiently on a calculator. I have enough trouble viewing some
sites at the low res of 640x480, so adapting a HTML page to a calculator would be
nearly impossible.

We can count on the major TI sites for supplying the community with TIML pages,
and many other smaller sites will follow suit.
