[iBook] Clamshell Browser???

[Tom R. no spam]

iCab works well, prefs can be set to be pretty secure and be the
way you want them, and gives tabbed browsing.  Current version
is v3.0 beta 382, which displays most pages nicely but will
occasionally print some pages at too-large fontsize.  (Proper
printout for them can be gotten by adjusting percentage reduction
in Page Setup.)  A previous stable version, v2.98, doesn't have
the printing problem, but has trouble displaying some websites
well, like ones with screwy table definitions, etc.  Checking
the iCab website now, I see 3.0b382 is current, though there is
a v2.99a (or "2.9.9a") available too, which I have just gotten
and will try sometime.  The author replies to emails which
contain meaningful questions, and fixes bugs based on user
feedback.  Is free, but $29 is a fair price to register, too.
