@thecubed: The actual problem is that Slashdot got too darn heavy these days. It loads 720KB page (600KB from the browser cache) for 21 seconds on a normal Pentium 4 / 2GHz. But that's not all - then some javascript runs for +30 seconds on the same machine. If you just leave your tablet and cancel the js warnings it will load at the end and will be easily browsable. Even Webkit chokes on Slashdot (though is faster than MicroB) - check my Tear browser if you want to see for yourself.
