If you have your PS2 connected to a regular TV (i.e., not a computer monitor), the text will be almost illegible anyhow (unless it uses a really large font to render the text.)

This was part of the reason for the failure of WebTV, etc. Either you look at 1/4 of a page (and the images are all out of alignment), or you have unreadable text -- often both.

hmm

well, Saturn's Netlink browser looked pretty good :)
Tell you something, even the CD-I (with it's 15mhz 68000) had an internet add-on.
Both systems had a hi-res mode (720x488 or something in that likelihood), I figure that's why it worked fine (but the CD-I had great trouble decoding the JPEGs :p)
