I like this trimmed down interface for Google's search page.

www.google.com/ie

For computer technology and news and rumors, nothing beats The Inquirer.

www.theinquirer.net (auto formats for Pocket Internet Explorer)

Lastly, there is CNET's News.com News to Go site.

www.news.com/2162-12_3-0.html

Other than the "thougts" sights, these are the ones I can can easliy visit/view from my phone.

Some sites I would LOVE to see in a PIE friendly format would be:

www.realityblurred.com/realitytv
www.tvtome.com
www.fandango.com (I have found a way to use the "Print Page" function to store a page of shows playing at my favorite theater)
www.anandtech.com

If anyone know of other similar sites that are PIE friendly please let me know.

PS. I know Hollywood.com has a "PIE" friendly site www.hollywood.com/avantgo but I'd rather have listings more specific to my local listings.

jfreiman: you can get local movie listings from wap.hollywood.com/#MainMenu - you can even buy tickets from your phone, securely!

Thanks for the info on Hollowood.com. While you are correct, here is why that isn't a good solution for me and others who live in a large city.

The minimum distance for Hollywood.com is 5 miles. Five miles here covers two large cities (San Francisco and Oakland) - with that many theaters, I might as well have a national listing.

It would be much better if it localized the listing to 1 Mile. At least that would limit my # of theaters to around 20! ;) (no joke)
