Does anyone have any suggestions for quote services for handheld wireless devices?

I am looking at the Compaq iPAQ H3650/H3630 with the AirCard 300 from Sierra Wireless. The iPAQ has a 3.0- by 2.3-inch color display (240 x 320 TFT LCD screen)with 12-bit colour depth (4,096 colours ) so it can display a bit of info. From my understanding CDPD transfers data over the cellular network at a rate of 19.2 kilobits per second which isn't to shabby.

Any suggestions on service providers would be appreciated.

Thanks again for all the helpful responses and suggestions.

Wily, there were no "ding" sound from the hidden "OK" box and I was able to close other programs such as Mytrack and its quote page and charts. Come to think of it, perhaps Catlady has a point. I'm downloading Netscape 4.75 now to see if it will make any difference. My Netscape browser do crash from time to time even when I'm not fully loaded with trading softwares.

Catlady, thanks for the pointers. I guess if this updated version of browser did not work, I probably would have to migrate to Win2000. Do you have multiple monitors on your Win2000 system?

Howard, thanks for letting me know the real purpose of the Window Resource meter. I also managed to get rid some of the programs sitting on the system tray. Whoa! I was able to get more than 80% free resource after boot-up now; whereas, I only had about 74% in the past. I'll remember to put the "M" next to 256 next time. :-)

-Brian-, I'll call my broker and Mytrack to see if their softwares will work with Win2000 just in case I'll need to take that route.

Again, thanks to all for the feedback. This is truly a great place to get help from many knowledgable people.
