So, here is a review of another 10 functional WebOS', as well as some additional similar services which show promise but aren't launched or fully realized yet." More here.

Nice, you crashed firefox in my stable linux system (not so stable after all)...

Either
1. Dos inside java is too much of a download for me to wait.
2. Firefox and java 6 dont like each other.
3. Sigh (goes back to windows XP where it loads fine).
