    I just started using the browser on my HTC 5800 and so far I love it! You can acomplish a lot more on this browser than the loathed Internet Explorer Mobile edition 🙁 If you have a touchscreen device, i’ll bet this browser is bad azz!!! TRY IT!

    Still no support for VGA screens. Looks like I’m still stuck with Opera Mobile.
