Anyone know of any settings that I can do to default to the original website? or is there another browser app that I can use that will allow me to do this? I tried Opera and that doesn't work either?
It's not a browser setting. The sites in question read the 9900's user agent (essentially the browsers identification), which they determines as "mobile" and then delivers a mobile optimized version of their site.
There is no way to force to the desktop version unless you bookmark the desktop URL and go there directly.
On OS 5 you could set the browser to Firefox or some other setting besides BlackBerry that would basically hide the fact that you were using a mobile device to browse the web & websites would open in their full versions instead of the mobile versions.
I haven't used this function since I've had my 9930 & a quick check in the browser options doesn't show any way to change it. I wonder if they did away with this or if the setting is just somewhere else?
