Hello, both sites are working fine for me as well. Amazon seems
to work good for brouzing and or placeing orders but to make any
changes to your account details you will need to use a PC. If
you run into a site that doesn't work well with the braillenote,
I highly recommend using www.skweezer.net
It doesn't solve all of the problems one may run into, but it
definitely helps in many cases. Just go to the weblink above,
press space with dots 4-6, type in the address you want, press
space with dots 4-6 and press enter. It will take you to a
shrunken version of the website that is more manageable.
Good luck.

Well, I just looked at both of these sites with both my mPower
and PK.
The weather.com site worked just fine with both. I didn't look
at
everything on the site, but I was able to get current weather
conditions by
inputting a zip code, and I was able to get the 36 hour and 7 day
forecasts.
Amazon.com worked with both as well. Although, in the case of
Amazon, it
brought up the mobile site, and not the PC one. Thus, there was
very little
clutter on the page. There were a few categories readily showing
up,
although you could hit a button for more. Or, you could just do
as I did
and enter info into the search box. And, when searching for
items, it did
bring up a list of items and give links to buy now or add to
cart. I
entered on the buy now link, and it proceeded to ask me for my
email address
and password to make the purchase, but I didn't test that part,
grin. I did
log in, though, and confirm my ship to address.
There was also a link near the bottom of the page for the PC
site. But,
when I entered on that link with the mPower and said yes to
allowing all
cookies, the unit just kept beeping for over five minutes, so I
exited out
of trying to get to that site. And, on my PK, the unit just
froze after
entering on the PC site and saying yes to allowing the cookies,
and I had to
do a c1 and c4 reset to get it going again.
