I wish my phone could access HFBoards. I don't think my cell even has internet.

I use Opera mini on my Nexus. It doesnt have the pinch zoom like the native browser, but it is much better IMO. Lightning fast, and it does an incredible job of resizing full sized pages. The home screen is nice too.

I personally can't wait for Opera Mobile on Android. Hopefully with full fledged multitouch.

Well if you have better, suggest. For what I check on my phone, it does the job pretty well.

BB's don't have browser alternatives unfortunately. BUT they acquired a WebKit browser developer "Torch Mobile" not too long ago and demoed their upcoming Webkit Based (same as iPhone, Safari, Android and Google Chrome) browser at Mobile World Congress.

Guys, I like Internet Explorer... it's really good! Try it! And you don't even have to use your cell phone to make it go!

Opera mini sucks compared to Safari just because of the only 2 zoom levels. I like everything else, esp. all the options but...the zoom thing is a very big and basic deficiency. Also the fact that when fully zoomed out, the text just looks like straight horizontal lines. No wonder Apple allowed it....it sucks.

The Android browser has multi touch and I am not a fan. Much prefer the Mini's way fo doing it.

It's fast but there are some quirks that need to be worked out. Safari is a more stable and smooth experience right now.

Same. I find all of the sites I use frequently display very well, so I don't encounter any of the zoom etc. problems people have. New #1 iBrowser.
