I was attempting to access CNN via WiFi URL
http://wireless.cnn.com/pqa/cnn/en/index.html today, and found they've
deactivated it. I suppose this continues the pattern they began when
shutting down their Avantgo service. Their new CNN2Go service seems
only available via certain US cell carriers. Does anyone have a URL for
direct, WiFi access to CNN for those of us who want to access CNN via
WiFi?

What do you use with the Wifi? A laptop, a PDA, or something else. Can't
you go to www.cnn.com?
Just curious.

I use a Tungsten C, which has a pretty decent web browser now - but
there's limits to how much you can paste into a palm-sized screen <lots
of scrolling, left and right>.

The text/pda oriented websites are really terrific with WiFi and a
small screen - if the provider (CNN in this case) wants to provide
them!

It's just weird that CNN would drop off the WiFi universe like that.
Must have gotten a pretty big cut from the cell carriers to make that
move.
