I was thinking about buying the note 10.1 but as I was looking at all the multitasking videos and learned that you can only multitask what samsung has approved. But I never saw anyone multitask 2 different internet tabs, is there a way to be browsing the internet and open a new tab on half the screen? Thanks!
Like any browser, you can do tabbed browsing, but no, there isn't a way to have 2 side by side browser screens with the stock broswer. HOWEVER, there is an app that does this called Overskreen.

Is there a way to put a real web browser on the sda?
If not ,what phone will?
Is firefox mobile good?
The closest thing I've seen to a real web browser on a Microsoft phone is the Picsel browser for the touchscreen phones.
It can't hold a candle to iPhone's Safari, so I've been told.
Opera mini can show pages like that. The only problem is that some scripts are disabled. Other than that pages look more or less the same as they would look on desktop. It also reduces the amount of loading time.
Other browser was Microsoft Deepfish, but there is not much news about that one.
sda?
Will any of these browsers work on sda?
Just interested in streaming the site "slacker".com
Are they safe?
2nd on Opera Mini, its great and amazingly fast. It makes mobile browsing awesome esp once you get to know the shortcuts, and esp when you like to go back and forward through your history a lot. Its soo damned fast at that. Just make sure you get Mini, not Mobile.
ohh streaming is another story...I know there are some streaming video options/flv options. I just haven't kept up with those options. I'm sure if you did a search on playing youtube, you'd come up with something.
But if you could deal w/not using Slacker.com. These two sites are formatted for mobile use and work excellently in Pocket IE.

Radiotime has real radio stations and a really cool format that allows you to change stations and genres using your joystick.
i used ipod touch 3 there isnt any zoom level and tet size options.as i see some android browser videos, there alot of options like that ..so possible to read full web pages without zooming?? thanks..
The dell streak has a large enough screen that I can read almost any website with no zooming, and thats the desktop versions of the site, no crappy mobile version.
It seems that the Dolphin Browser developers are very active these days. They make Dolphin Browser Mini the first online pdf viewer supported mobile browser, update the select text style in Dolphin Browser HD. But the most exciting news is that they are going to release a Dolphin Browser for pad! This new has been proved by its official blog post.
As an honest fan of Dolphin Browser, I have to say I am really looking forward to this new browser for pad. Although I haven’t experienced this new browser yet, it looks pretty cool. Besides keeping all the good features in Dolphin Browsers: Add-on, Gesture, Multi touch Pinch Zoom, Bookmark Sync, Bookmarks Sorting, Data Backup & Data Restore, Private Browsing, etc. , it innovates the traditional browsing experience----webzine. This sounds like that browsing is no longer browsing, but reading. The Dolphin Browser developers are going to stir another browsing revolution! However, my only concern is its speed. I don’t expect its speed being what they promised----with Dolphin Browser Mini’s level of speed, but I sincerely hope it could be faster than Dolphin Browser HD.
Anyway, I am really curious how this new dolphin could be. So I just registered, and am waiting for their beta invitation.
cool, the pad version works perfect on my Samsung Galaxy Tab.
But i can not find the fantastic sign for Gesture as on the phone.
You can find the Gesture button in the upper right corner, next to the address bar.
a triangle symbol..
Hey guys.
I like tabs so I've been using dolphin browser.
but when I close it or reboot I lose my tabs.
Anyone know how to make it like most desktop browsers and save your tabs on close?
anyone probably noticed that android isn't really smooth in browsing unlike the iphone or the wp7...
and there is a simple reason for that! it is the rendering technique of the page.
iphone/wp7(and some new android phones like the sgs2) simply view the internet as a photo and when you zoom or scroll it is not a problem for the device to maintain 60 fps, 1 render(unless you zoom) and then you have no problem moving it.
However, android(stock browsers by google or others found in the play market) uses a different technique they actually show you the web as it is! means it shows you the vectoric form of stuff instead of rasterizing it into a big bitmap.
hence android is CONSTANTLY rendering the web when you move it so it is very hard for a simple device to load and maintain a nice and steady 60 fps(or even 20).
solution: hey why dont we make android do the same?
oh yes you can do that! and even better than the iphone does(the iphone will freeze for 1-5 seconds if you zoom in and out rapidly on heavy sites like yt and other desktop pages android don't) Opera mini does that
and perfectly good!
so every device running android can be smooth as well by using opera mini (next)
(not mobile... mini... mobile uses vectoric graphics too)
pros: ultra smooth! and you still have this fast android scrolling!
cons: no flash(par wth iphone). and sites load as mobile by default and might be shown wrong due to sever compression...
you having a big and powerfull device? you dont have to do this... just get boat browser and you will enjoy fast and vectoric browsing... without the cons of raterized browsing.
boat is the complete browsing experience imo...
btw in boat you can pan and zoom togather with 2 fingers(unlike opera and other browsers)
HAVE FUN!
The server-side website compression of opera mini makes the pages look terrible.. but maybe that's just me.

nope.. thats totally true.
opera makes your browsing experience worst.
Try Opera Mobile.
It doesn't need server side compression yet it is as smooth.
nope

didnt encounter much of problems... only in some rare ocassions(full yt and sites that have moving bars as the yt bar of playlists)
otherwise opera mini does the same as ios safari.
but scrolls android fast one fling for a page not a fling for 0.1 page.
btw in opera mobile you can disable that... in mini not...
also i gave you the boat browser alternative in case you dont have a super slow device...
i wish they could just make opera mobile or even boat browser with the mini's rendering engine!
no it's not...

its not smooth at all and wow i just loooove black blank screen on my device!
or that it doesnt work on ics or that the last update ruined it(wanted to dl it again and see if its smooth... apparantly it ruines the web surfing completely!)
all i see is white screen with opera mobile and than black screen with status bar...(used to work fine but not as smooth as the mini... not same gpu accelerated rendering methods)
