Moxy 1.1.6 (for Palm OS)
Moxy is a mobile web proxy launchpad. It uses Google's mobile content proxy to reformat pages, to strip unnecessary data, and optionally to strip images - Makes some web sites actually usable with Palm's Blazer web browser. Moxy provides a convenient way to perform proxied searches of Wikipedia, IMDb, answers.com, or other sites. It submits search queries directly to specified web sites, thereby reducing the number of steps and reducing latency.

santapok: Cool, work great on centro also
griffinca: Use it to open a website unsuited for Blazer, etc because of page size and images. Put the website in Moxy and it sends it to Blazer using a Google function to reduce the page size maintaining essential content. You can then bookmark that pageview in Blazer and go back to the reformated page anytime. Very nice and useful. You can also do other nice things like search wikipedia, etc from Mozy directly and get better results for a PDA. Even with images turned on, the results were far better than vanilla on most pages.
yisrael: This app makes web browsing, dictionary seaches, and wikipedia searches quickly and easily w/o adding any extra stuff. Highly recommended.
stickboy: I'm the author of Moxy, and I wish I didn't have to add bias by rating my own program, but mytreo.net doesn't seem to offer me any other way to respond to comments.
chrisquevedo: I don't understand why you compare it Opera Mini. Moxy isn't a web browser; it's a companion program that uses whatever your default web browser is.
kenweise: I wish you explained what your problem was; I've tried leaving you a private message in the forums to no avail.
I have a feedback form on my website. If any of you have issues or comments, please try that. Thanks!
chrisquevedo: opera mini is WAY better! plus is looks a hell of a lot better
Jarrod117: Thank you for fixing this. Its one of my favorites
myleszmyles: Fantastic, loads fast, strips all unwanted content. Works w/ Treo 700 and Lifedrive.
omalley73: Great when you need it. Works flawlessly on my Sprint 650.
Southpaw018: Excellent little program. Makes loading pages where information is a premium very, very fast by stripping out the images and other useless stuff.
kenweise: My 600 with a sloooow GPRS connection could really use this. Unfortunately it would not run.
