The problem with the mobile Web experience has been that the networks being used are not very fast or very cheap to use, said Beerud Sheth, cofounder of Webaroo. We allow mobile device users to download and carry the content with them, with any changes updated each time the application is used.

While the Internet is phenomenal as a resource for looking up information, those wanting to search it must, of course, be connected — but not if startup Webaroo has a say in the matter.
Satisfying the need for instant Internet gratification while on the road is the objective of Webaroo, a company that is now offering access to huge chunks of the Internet by compressing massive amounts of Web information into small sizes for viewing on laptops and PDAs — all without the need for an Internet connection.

Webaroos technology essentially scours the Internet for great Web pages and stores them in packages that can be saved for offline searches. These packages, called Web Packs, are tailored to a variety of interests and are automatically updated by the companys servers.
