unfortunately, mobile favorites can only be a single level of folders

an alternative is to convert all of the favorites to Netscape Bookmarks
(google for converters) since the result is a single html file which you
can then set as as your home page even if it is synced to your My
Documents folder or sub folder.

It would also be possible to sync all of the favorites (as files) to
your my documents folder and generate a shortcut that would launch pfile
explorer there and tapping any link would launch it in pie.

Hi,

The entire Favorites list could be exported as a single html file. Open
IE -> Click File -> Import and Export... -> proceed and choose Export
Favorite and all the links are stored into a Bookmark.html file with the
folders names marked in bold. Synchronize this html file to your device and
you should have them as links. I believe that is what Beverly too is
referring to as Netscape Bookmarks.
