(keitai-l) Re: Useful inventions...for conserved news?

I think Juergen's point is that this is a workaround: you
can cache iAppli, but not pages.

I'd like to know how sizes of cHTML source and resulting
iAppli binaries compare.  My understanding (courtesy
of Harry Behrens, and possibly phone-dependent)
is that API calls are "late-bound" - the actual character
string representation of the method call is still in
the downloaded binary.  That would seem to bulk
it out a little, to the extent that cHTML content is
tag-text, anyway.
