On a different note:
What are you guy's opinions on the Opera web browser?

It's alright. I'd say it's on par with Chrome. Both are speedy and have good language support, but the people who use Opera tend to use it because it's "different" and "not mainstream".

I guess you could say it's almost a browser for hipsters.

Different layout, and has some pretty cool features...
I just like Firefox better though. Maybe it's because they're whuppin' Micro$oft.
I dunno. I am considering it for my 6 or 7 year old Pocket PC. Pocket IE just isn't the miracle browser. There isn't even navigation buttons.

Firefox is alright. The only reason why I still use it is because of the extensions. Makes it easy to download mass Rapidshare links. As a browser though it's gotten way too fat. I miss the original lightweight Firefox pre-version 1.5...

I use Opera and Chrome. The only thing with Opera is a few incompatibility issues, uploading photos to eBay?!, but I like it's look and it's slick. Chrome is the same.

no, it was just a momentary thing. Here is a screenshot I just took with the usual layout.

foothead: it does it sometimes on my Axim. Only works right on portrait orientation.
Haven't tried Chrome yet. Hey, what have you heard about the Google OS?
