It's looks like data-over-cellular.  They're not keeping the pages on
their servers.

It'd be interesting to find out what's OS is running on it though.

On the open source solution side, I'm fairly certain you won't find
any turnkey solutions.  (I'd love to be corrected on that!)

You might be able to put something together with a Sharp Zaurus and a
decent data plan with your cell provider.  Definately a YMMV
situation.

Pocket web surfer looks kinda neat, I just don't need another internet
(or cell) bill.
