Everytime I try to go to Palms website, it just crawls... Anyone else experience similar issues?

I have the exact same problem. Regardless of what browswer I use, and regardless of whether I use Mac OS X or Windows, the Palm site always loads terribly slowly. Makes you wonder what kind of crappy web designers they have on staff.

Until we get a 3 lbs sub-PowerBook, the 12-inch PowerBook will do.

Looks like they're running it on a Unix box of some variant:

Interesting. I hadn't visited the Palm site in ages, but now that I tried it again, it's fast for me as well. I'm using Camino (3/18 nightly build). Maybe it was slow when I was still using Internet Exploder. Dunno...
