Blazer works perfectly fine for the device it's on. You don't have a fancy super-high-res multi-touch screen on a Treo (ok, so TECHNICALLY, a Treo's 320x320 has a higher PPI than the iPhone's 320x480, but you have to factor Garnet's lack of font anti-aliasing (and lack of decent fonts in general) - even if you did display full HTML, it would look HIDEOUS), especially since most uses for an AJAX-supporting browser are negated by either, a. WAP versions of mobile-focused sites (Twitter, Engadget, Facebook, etc.), or b. Native Palm OS apps (Google Maps, Bejeweled)
If you desperately need full HTML, "pirate" the deprecated JVM and run Opera Mini 4.
