"Background" Browsing app?

[BigLazyB11]

Hi there, Droid 1 user -- is there a browser or an app that will allow the user to launch a bunch of browser windows, that will continue to download while the user is doing other things on the phone? I am thinking -- open browser, open a bunch of windows with different newspapers on each one, then check email while it all loads up. Go back at your leisure with all the pages all downloaded so you don't do any waiting.

Pipe dream, or does it exist? Does Android even support something like this?

Also, does anyone else hate the Weather Channel app that went from a great slick interface with easy controls to its current slow, cumbersome and processor heavy mess?

Just askin.
