WebViewer is just fantastic.... nowadays I neither use WAP on my phone, nor Internet Explorer on my Pocket PC any more - in fact WebViewer wraps text (and handles shrunken images) better on the small 7650 screen, than IE does on a Pocket PC !
One issue - if I get the Real One Mobile player (which, amazingly, is listed as working on 7650) - will it launch and kick in automatically if I click on a Real link in WebViewer ? I look at the BBC News website a lot using GPRS and it would be great if I could click on a video archive link (same at CNN) and view it straight off... there is no 'download' right click facility in WebViewer, so I can't save it to look at separately.
Real Player is 500K so I thought I'd ask here before offloading somestuff from the Nokia to make room for it.

No. Webviewer is a Java application that is run in a virtual machine, kind of a cage. It cannot see outside of it's cage. There is no way to tell the Real player, which is a native application, to open up a stream.
real one is also 1008 kb installed on the phone too ! one hell of an install and to be honest it is only really any cop with stuff you put on your phone that is a .ram document , ive just taken it off mine !
Thanks for clearing that up, (other) guest.
And agreed re. space vs. utility - I was impressed that Real thought it worthwhile making a version for 7650, so installed it to see what it could do, but I never managed to get it to do anything useful. From other posts I suspect it was really written to be part of the built-in package on the 3650 (which has video recording) and so was released early as a (presumably) zero-effort port onto the 7650. Without a recording feature (and memory card), as you say there is no sensible use for it - no live downloads, and only other way to import is by file transfer - and for what purpose ?
