    Opera mini 5 (beta)

    I highly recommend any smartphone user to check this out. I've been so used to opera mobile and how slow it was, but the stunt they're pulling for appstore approval on the iphone made me look at it.

    It's MUCH faster. On par with PC browsing I dare say (excluding cellular network speed, obviously.) It renders rediculously faster and you can scroll entire pages without that damned checkerboard effect. :D The beta is stable (ran into a small homescreen bug that required an exit, that's all so far), but I highly recommend you try it out. It's available for Windows Mobile, Blackberry, and Android for now.

    Also posting with it. BG was a pain in the ass site with opera mobile, not anymore with mini!

    I've been using Opera 10 for awhile now (most cooked Windows Mobile ROM's come with it standard). Its extremely fast and well made, Opera Turbo works decently (some pages cease to work sometimes) and it still doesn't support a lot of HTC hardware by default.

    Either way, still better than IE/Skyfire shit by a billion.
