I waited to download miniopera and I wish I hadn't- I love it- it is "prettier" than the default browser. I just wish I could make it my default browser.
There are only certain web sites I use it for. Overall, the BB browsing experience still leaves a lot to be desired. Most of the time the BB browser is good enough for my needs.

For some sites its great, inability to make it the default I find a drawback as well as all the clicking required for info input makes it cumbersome and clunky I found.
I have adjusted to the BlackBerry browser after using Opera Mini for ages on Windows Mobile.
The only thing that I use Opera Mini for is when I want to browse a page in full view without things being jumbled up. There are a few sites like this for me and the BlackBerry browser's page view is just too slow.
Those of you that think Opera Mini is slow, btw, should change the transport protocol from Socket to HTTP in the app's settings... makes a HUGE difference in speed.

Yeah it doesn't fix the scrolling slowdown (you can use the 4, 2, 6, and 8 keys to speed up searching, then use the trackball to navigate to what you want to click on) but using HTTP instead of Socket transport seems to be a lot faster - I imagine that Socket sends it through RIM's servers but I am not 100% on that yet.
I like it for certain websites...mainly sites that BB Browser won't open...it would be even more if I could only figure out how to zoom back out. Anyone care to help me out with that??

I only use it when sites on my berrys browser is blocked because I'm on bes. I was really mad when I first encountered this but quickly got over it. Also I don't like the fact that I have to constantly zoom in. Is there something that I'm missing on that? I would probably use it much more if it weren't for that little nag.
