Julie,
I use a combination of Webbie and the RSS feed reader that comes in the
same package.
I have the BBC news headlines as a feed, and when I find a headline I
want to read I press the return key on it and that loads the page in Webbie.
Now, Webbie is an excellent text-based browser but it is easy,
especially in news sites for the news to be lost in the noise of links.
But in Webbie the key combination of control + K hides all the links and
just leaves the news text.

Hello List
I am endeavouring to assist a deaf blind gentleman who is using a
braillenote Apex and wishing to browse the bbc news and sports sites.
I think they have changed their website because the links that used to
work no longer do, so I am wondering whether anybody is aware of any
text-based sites suitable for use with a braillenote apex?
The apex has been updated to the latest firmware.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Best wishes and thanks in anticipation.
Julie.
