I know thunderhawk may be the best as far as viewing webpages, is there anything else that comes close?

Picsel browser is the best I've used. NetFront is meant to be great I hear.

On a QVGA device, without frames and copy/paste support, maybe. Otherwise, particularly if you have a VGA device, go for something else; for example, Opera Mobile or, to a lesser degree, the PIE + new (!) PIEPlus 2.2 combo OR NetFront 3.4 TP.
Please see my previous articles & comparisons of all these browsers so that you'll see what their particular strengths / weaknesses are and how they compare; these articles can all be found here in the forum.
pieplus works good for me. minimo is more than my device likes to handle (plus bad bookmark support).

Yup, Minimo runs pretty slow on some models / ROM versions.
Minimo is very slow to load but once it has, it is fine on my orbit overclocked of course. I like to use tabs so it is handy. Loads more features than PIE.
For me, the best browser is the almost new Opera Mobile 8.65. It got new options to download images and to import IE Favorites, among other new things, and it's very fast.
Could you please post a link to the Opera 8.65 for pocket PC.
I have checked their site and the latest version yet available for download is 8.60 which I am already using and it provides no way to import the Internet explorer favourite links. So I guess 8.65 may be a beta version. A link for download would be most helpful, though I could see the version 8.65 for the Symbian S60 which will obviously not work for us the PPC users.
Thanks and Regards

Here is the link, with the new features. But it's true that when you try to download, the version is 8.60u2 (?).

I attached some captures with the versión page, the "Save Image" option and the "Import IE Favorites" option.

Yeah, it's the old 8.60u2 only, last modded last December.
Where did you acquire your beta from? Is there a public link / source anywhere?

I got it from a blog pointing to the page that I posted before and to a download link. But the download link is dead. So I guess that it may it be a pre-release version. Another thing, It doesn't asks for a registration code. It's very strange.
It runs very well (except the flash support that doesn't runs or I don't know how to make it runs). Even the "old" trick to translate cache and other files to the SD card runs well...
I got the CAB in my Desktop so, if someone wants to try, it I will upload it.

According to the linked page, it relies on the external Macromedia / Adobe Flash 7.0 plug-in.

*an URL was here*
Menneisyys' comment: sorry, as a moderator, I'm also responsible (to some extent) for what files the XDA-Dev forum (or, at least, the threads I contribute to and, therefore, am bound to know the contents of) contains. This is why I've removed the link after speaking to the Opera folks: the file turned out to be a pre-release betatest version, in no way to be distributed. That is, someone from the betatest team has leaked the pre-production, NDA'd test version - at least this is what I think the case is.
Thanks again for the URL and the effort you've provided me the file (it's really appreciated); sorry, again, for my having to remove the link.
Could you please also remove the file from RapidUpload as well? (If it takes too much effort, then, don't do it. Just don't spread the URL.)
Thanks!
BTW, in the meantimne, I've edited my post

May be, Opera usually allows 30 days of trial... But the prior version allows to enter a registration code and this one, not.

I've it installed for PIE since a lot of time. I've reinstalled it but no results... I've looking in the Opera.ini but I found nothing.
By the way, there is a question about this version posted in Opera forums:
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=180783
No answers... for now.
Regards.
There's an answer there now:
For the record, Opera Mobile 8.65 for WM is still not released. And this page should not be public. :smile:
When the release is here, this will of course be announced. At least now you know what to look foward to. :wink:
Has anyone tried it yet?

Would love to try it on my Wizard though. Opera is fine for me on the Universal, but anything less than VGA would benefit from something like this.

@Griffy wiffy Thanks for posting the cab-file and the code
So far Deepfish works smnooth and offers a nice idea on browsing the internet on a ppc but in its early development stage it's not useful for daily purpose, but shouldn't take long until we have a good alternative for surfing the web
I guess that the posted cab is for pocket PC? Any chance anyone is willing to post the smartphone version?
"As a technology preview, Deepfish is early in its development cycle (still a few releases from beta quality). As a result some features are not implemented or are only partially implemented. Currently, the technology preview does not support ActiveX controls, AJAX, cookies, Javascript, and HTTP POST."
PUKE... I don't get how its worth browsing with???? no cookies??? no java??? I think i'll wait till final release
this is very nice idea, it is useful right now, it looks a lot like I already saw on some Nokia phones, E series. I'm wandering why is not freely available for download, is money the only thing that drives M$ !?
Does anyone know if this works on WM6. I've tried installing this and it says its successful but there is no new program installed nor any shortcut icons>
Any ideas

It won't and I don't think WM2003(SE) support will ever be released. The platform is being ntirely phased out; for exmaple, NetFront 3.4 and Minimo 0.2 don't support it either.
So does anyone else NOT have a calculator on their S710? I don't know why, but I've looked everywhere and there is no calculator on my phone. If anyone knows any good (preferably free) calculators, post them up please! I downloaded one, but its just a trial and I don't really feel like paying for something that could be free. Thanks.
I don't have it too, it's nowhere to be found in WINDOWS folder.
Anyone can provide us his calcul.exe in his WINDOWS folder? Preferably from a (HTC S710) WM6.0 smartphone . A WM 5.0 may work too
Choose which one you prefer
This is the of zip file contents:
- Calc3_ARMV4.CAB
- SCalc10SP.CAB
- gCalc_v1.0_SP.CAB
- WM6 Calc.zip
- Calculator.exe
- Calculator_Crossicon.ico.
Choose one (or more), and enjoy!
PS: Only one of these is an .exe program that doesn't need the normal .cab installation procedure, just put it in any folder and run it.
PPS: I've no will nor time to check which of these is free and which is not, so you could do that in place of me according to your consciousness.

The product was made available through Microsoft's site as a "free" download, which may be why you thought it was freeware. However, it's a commercial application which we got paid a fee to provide through Microsoft.
The .zip file is at the start of this thread and is Calculators (Programs).zip. The file within it is CalcLite-Smartphone.zip.
Thanks for doing this - much appreciated!

First of all, if you are talking about Opera Mobile, then it is a commercial software so no ROM release will have it.
Now, the second part. There aren't very many ROMs released for Kaiser yet so go through each release and check yourself to see what software are included with the release.
thanks for that
ive never used opera but i was advised by a colleague to get it
whats you r views on it ,,is it worth getting (i presume being commercial itll cost to obtain)
is it worth actually installing ???
thanks
Certain sites seem to work best on different browsers. I have both Opera Mobile and PIE installed (and use both regularly). There is a 30 day trial of Opera...check it out before you buy. Also try Opera Mini - also a very good browser which I've used at times. Hopefully, someone will soon integrate all the best features of each.

OPERA MINI is free dude and its the best browser for windows mobile device to date.
and also there are TONS of roms released for the kaiser..

I think my post was very straightforward. Opera Mobile will not be included with any release; to see if Opera Mini is included, just go through the ROM release threads. It's that simple.
Plus, if I really wanted to post just to get my post counts up then I would have thousands of posts by now since 2004.
I believe that one of Duttys roms had OPERA in it. I guess it was the V1 version of his fantastic rom - but the Forum has agreed not to use commercial software.....
But Companero. Use Operamini instead - its greeeeaat. By far the fastest browser you can get - and you can sync your links with MyOpera so you wont miss anything if you flash a new rom.
I do know that Jack's current FULL version has Opera Mobile in it. I believe it's out there if you look hard enough.

Yes. There is a post in the Device Upgrading area (top part of the forums) that has the how to do this.
OperaMini works well in most cases, but remember that whatever you are doing is rendered on a remote server. Don't use it for anything that should be secure (ie: don't do purchases or passwords across OperaMini IMO).
whats the big f**ing deal about sherpas post? he said as simple as needed: opera mobile is commercial. except for very few cooks, noone creates ROMs which include commercial version of different software for obvious reasons. if u want it, go buy it!
on the other hand, opera mini is free and you can install it in less than 5 minutes on every ROM, provided it has the right java applet installed. If not, one can also install Indent Java Midi applet which works perfect with Opera Mini.
i really hate all this smart ass talking and this show off from some of the users around here. it is a lot quicker and more useful to give a simple answer, even if it had been posted thousand times rather than telling to go read the wiki, search with google etc.
