I must say that Opera Mini 4.2 kicks some serious **** over the default BB browser on the Storm!! It does not use the press/click to navigate, more like a double tap and you need to bring up the K/B manually when needed but other than that, it does a really good job of rendering and loading pages. Much faster than the default browser and an acceptable alternative until a better solution comes out IMHO.
A quick double tap will zoom in, holding your finger on the screen for a sec or two will give the mobile vs. page mode option.
haha, Ill have to go into my local corporate store now and load opera on all the storms, then tell them I'll be back when Fennec is released for Blackberry!
This leads me to believe someone can create software that will do away with the need to use the click through screen. So those that like the iPhones tap interface, Blackberries and the Verizon network can have it all. Or maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night and I am delirious.
question. after i download it....it moves into the "download" folder. how can i move it out so that it is one of the main icons? I couldn't figure out how to do this with aim for that matter as well.

highlight the app, use the BB menu button and select move location and move it to Home
hmm my one minor gripe at the moment is when u click into an input field on Opera, the keyboard doesn't automatically pop up, same with going away when done typing

Yup - mentioned that - but I assigned the "Virtual Keyboard" to the camera button on the side under "keyboard/Screen" options and that pretty much solves that problem and starting the camera by accident every time I take it out of the holster.

Never mind - that doesn't work for address entry <sigh>

Actually clicking on a text entry field is the only time I get the keyboard to pop-up and close automatically.
