I have a 32MB one and it's fine but I would like to have the 32
extra.... More memory is always better.

I didn't have an application that I couldn't run so far. I use Debian
unstable and it has everything and it's very up to date (python2.4,
firefox, etc).
Yes! I use firefox. It works fine, maybe a bit slow and uses pretty
much all the available memory (that's where the 32 extra would be
nice) but I can use it to read the webmail if I need.

Didn't try that yet but I don't see why not.
