Has anyone tried the Xbox internet browser? Good, Bad, Ugly?
Is there any other current browser software to recommend?

I'm replying via LinksBox. It does work but its only good for minimal browsing.

LinksBox is ok, but has a ways to go. The Dreamcast browser was better. But free is free, I just have it to show off to freinds.

I'm thinking of installing Linux for the sole purpose of having Mozilla on my XBox.  But a lot of people seem to have problems getting Linux out of 640x480 on the XBox.

So I'll try LinksBox first.

If you hook your Xbox up to your network, LinksBoks will work fine. The way to type is pretty hard with the controller, but I just wanted to be able to check my email with my Xbox. The program works very well.
