What happens in technical terms when you subscribe to an AvantGo channel?
When you subscribe to (and subsequently download) an AvantGo Channel, the Mobile Link installed on the desktop computer downloads from the AvantGo Sync Server on the AvantGo site, a specified collection of related pages, which are copied to the palm during the sync operation. There it is served by the AvantGo Client, which also provides browser functionality.
The Sync Server carries out some preprocessing (it shrinks photos too big for the handheld screen, filters out content which cannot be viewed by the Client, such as Java applets, and in general compresses the HTML.
Forms may be filled in (posting will take place on the next sync).
