What is your favorite mini browser for your mobile? OperaMini, Opera 9.5, IE Mobile, Skyfire, etc? I favor both of IE mobile and OperaMini. I dislike Skyfire browser.
 
Safari ;)

Just only 1 browser for now, I believe they will develop the Opera for iPhone.
 
i have IE and Skyfire. i like both... i have used Opera before but i haven't tried updated Opera 9.5. i am happy with IE and Skyfire on my mobile.

Why not you use OperaMini? I use mobile view in it. faster than Opera 9.5.

Yes there are Opera mini for Blackberry. I have em in my new Curve. It is fast, powerful BUT no java enabled which means it won't automatically reload after sign in or filled form. You have to do reloading manually or click "if browser do not reload, click..." link. I was able to get around Ebay and Paypal account without hitch. It is like a full sized browser crammed in bb. It uses panning and click to blow it up close to read or enter information. My advice is that try clear out cookies as often as possible to allow faster loading. Depending on website you are in, sometime it loads slow or pointer is slow going around due to pictures or image materalized while scrolling.

Yeah, if u have newer BB Curve with 86 mb internal memory just like I have, it may be a little issue. Older BB have 64mb or less memory which are a bigger issue. I heard BB Bold 9000 have 1gb internal memory and faster processor which will be the least issue to Opera browser.

I use Opera Mini mostly as a mini browser. :) If I want to view youtube videos, I use IE since it's supported for that *shrugs*

BB 8300 Curve - the first model of the family. Smiles. So I have tiny memory. That was the first thing I noticed. Oh well.
 
I admit, My Treo 700p suck and can't add any mini browsers anymore. "Your contract end date is 11/01/08" Hurry up! Can't wait to get iPhone 3G.

I still like Opera 9.5 Browser. Easier than Skyfire.

but but but (I think you live in Seattle) your coverage have 3G under ATT and mine coverage don't. Just Verizon EVDO. I wish Verizon should accept iPhone from Apple in few years ago. Stupid VZ.
