Just curious what you all prefer? BB browser viewing the mobile version, Bolt, Opera Mini? Something else? Personally I really really enjoy the speed and the way Bolt renders most websites, including Crackberry.
I like the native BB browser mobile version when I'm just checking out things real quick. But like right now I've been on for nearly 3 hours using my tour, in this case I prefer Bolt. I don't get it, I know most people like OM better, I just can't get used to it. I really like bolt a lot, although it needs some improvement for sure.
I use the bb browser on column view for crackberrys mobile site but only for cb other then that I use bolt.

Glad to see a fellow Bolter. I'm new to smartphones and Blackberry. So I was trying to use the native browser to view some full html site, and several didn't work. Couldn't check my bank account. Then I learned other browsers were available, found Bolt, and love it.
Ok I'm messing with the native browser now. Thought constantly going to column view would be a pain. I see the Z key is a shortcut. Don't you guys find it hard to read the smaller text though. I wish I could zoom in, and THEN do column view, so I wouldn't have to zoom manually then scroll left and right to read messages.

Mobile launcher is a lot easier to click on vs typing in a web address unless you set CB as your homepage. Its more of a convenience thing than anything. I use the standard BB browser, but if I want to view a regular webpage I use the Beta version of the bolt browser.

When you say "beta version of the Bolt browser" are you talking about the only available Bolt browser that's out? If so I didn't realize what I was using was beta.....
Or are you using a beta of an upcoming version of Bolt?

BB Browser for me, too. That's on the Tour. The question was about preference, though, and that would have to be Firefox on my Simply Mepis Linux boxes. Bolt is a great alternative to view Crackberry on, but it's hard for my old tired eyes to read. Great question.

Thank you Ron. Yeah I can understand that if anyone had even slightly bad eyes, they may not like Bolt. I set my default view to Xtra large and its ok. But that cause you to have to scroll left and right more.

I will only use the native browser now that I realized I can change the minimum font size, and by default my berry is always on column view. Much better.

i'm still using the native browser set to size 8 font. I've tried Opera Mini but i'm got tired of giving permission for it to access the internet every time I used it. Who knows, it may just be that I didn't have it set correctly. Still, it didn't seem any faster.
