You can find apps that use a lot of space, copy certain directories to the internal 2gig drive and link them back to the 256meg drive. I think there is also a thread or wiki page that lists unneeded files you can remove.

Cloning to and booting from the 2gig or external SD will not only gain you a lot more space for apps but also give you a way to get back into your device when it breaks, and it will break. A bad application or a crash could require you to reflash the device, losing all settings and data that haven't been backed up. If you boot from SD and this happens then you might be able to boot from the 256meg flash and fix them problem without a reflash.

The Tear browser is fast on most of the sites I visit but the slow processor is unable to handle bloated sites.

Do you have wifi power at 100mW or 10mW? You can find the setting in the advanced section where you configure the access point.
