I recently redid a similarly framed site by replacing the frames with  
DIVs and updating the content of those DIVs with a simple AJAX call  
for the full frame content.  The eventual plan is to update more  
selectively with only the data that's actually changing, but the  
first step just involved adding few AJAX requests, and stripping the  
extraneous markup from the frame pages.

Peace,
Scott
