I used a kit to ‘root’ it and allow installing software. I then installed some handy utility which basically just shows a web page and refreshes it every so often. I just made a simple weather web app which connects to a free service. This works great. I could have written a little Android app to do the same, but my memory of Android UI is that I never ‘got’ it so this seemed easier.
